1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract

objectivesThis randomized clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effect of calcium hydroxide-based, calcium silicate-based and epoxy resin-based root canal sealers on postoperative pain (PP) after a single session of non-surgical endodontic retreatment of the teeth with chronic apical periodontitis. MATERIALS AND

methodsNinety-six participants who had teeth with previously root canal treatment, asymptomatic, a single root and single canal, chronic apical periodontitis, were included in the study and then were randomly allocated to one of three experimental groups. (n = 32 per group).An endodontic specialist performed same retreatment protocols in a single visit. Participants were asked to rate the intensity of PP on a visual analogue scale at 6, 12, 24, and 48 h, and 3, 4,5, 6, and 7 days, and to mark whether they had taken analgesic (400 mg Ibuprofen) during the same periods after retreatment. All statistical analyses were performed using a software program (IBM SPSS Statistics, Version 22), and the significance level was set at P < 0.05.

resultsThere was no significant difference between the groups in PP and analgesic intake at any of the time intervals evaluated(P > 0.05).A strong positive correlation was observed at 48 h and 96 h when the correlation between PP and analgesic intake was evaluated regardless of the type of root canal sealer. PP level was associated with age, gender, Periapical Index (PAI) score, and jaw type.(P < 0 0.05).

conclusionsEpoxy resin, Calcium silicate, and calcium hydroxide-based root canal sealers resulted in statistically similar postoperative pain levels. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Each of the epoxy resin, calcium silicate, and calcium hydroxide-based root canal filling materials could be used safely in patients when considering PP.
