Evaluation of the clinical success of direct restorations of endodontically treated posterior teeth in the presence of parafunction: a 12-month pilot study.
Trial report in Head & face medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06870188 (Evaluation of the Clinical Success of Direct Restorations of Endodontically Treated Posterior Teeth in the Presence of Parafunction), which is not on this map.

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.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Abstract
objectivesThe objective of this prospective, randomized, parallel-group clinical study was to compare the 6- and 12-month clinical performances of direct composite restorations with or without fiber-reinforced composite applied to endodontically treated posterior teeth (ETpT) in bruxists. MATERIALS AND
methodsThirty-two ETpT were randomly restored with only posterior composite (gneal posterior, GC; CR group) or fiber-reinforced composite (EverX flow, GC) + posterior composite (FRCR group) in bruxists aged 18-65 years (n = 16). The inclusion criteria were as follows: bruxists with ETpT; class 1/2 cavities; the remaining functional wall at least 3 mm thick; teeth with a natural tooth in the opposite arch; and adjacent teeth on both approximal sides. The presence of periapical symptoms, posterior teeth with tubercule loss, and teeth with root canal fillings at least 2 mm short of the radiographic apex were excluded.
resultsAll restorations were evaluated at 6 and 12 months on the basis of the World Dental Federation (FDI) criteria. No failure was reported, and clinical success was recorded for all aesthetic, functional, and biological criteria at 6 and 12 months of follow-up in both groups.
conclusionsSmall/medium-sized direct composite restorations with or without fiber-reinforced composites demonstrated excellent and similar clinical performances at 12 months in bruxists. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Since parafunctional forces can be significantly higher than normal chewing forces, the study focused exclusively on patients with bruxism. The 12-month clinically successful outcomes of direct composite restorations both with and without SFRC in this study will guide future long-terms studies in evaluating restorations of ETpT in bruxists.
