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.

2 · The registry

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.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the shrinkage, degree of conversion, water sorption and solubility, and mechanical properties of a newly developed one-shade universal composite and compare it with five other commercially available universal composites with one or multiple shades. Our proprietary resin and filler technologies developed the experimental one-shade universal composite (Experimental). Volumetric shrinkage was determined using the AcuVol video imaging method (n = 5). Degree of conversion was measured using FTIR (n = 5). Water sorption and solubility (15 × 1 mm, n = 5) and flexural strength and modulus (2 × 2 × 25 mm, n = 5) were measured according to ISO-4049. Diametral tensile strength (6 × 3 mm, n = 8) was tested according to ANSI/ADA-Specification #27. The data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey tests (
