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

Abstract
Context: Furcal perforations compromise tooth structure and may lead to endodontic failure. Effective sealing is crucial to prevent microleakage and promote healing. Aims: This Materials: Biodentine, ProRoot mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), MTA repair high plasticity (HP), and Evo MTA. Settings and Design: The study used 116 extracted maxillary molars with standardized furcal perforations, created under controlled lab conditions to ensure reliable comparison. Subjects and Methods: Teeth were disinfected, access cavities prepared, and perforations sealed using one of the four materials. Methylene blue dye was used to assess leakage. Samples were sectioned and examined under scanning electron microscopy at ×1000 magnification to evaluate gaps and microleakage. Statistical Analysis Used: Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, one-way analysis of variance, and Tukey's Honestly-significant-difference (HSD) test, with significance set at Results: Biodentine demonstrated the highest sealing ability ( Conclusions: Biodentine and MTA Repair HP offer superior sealing in furcal perforation repair compared to ProRoot and Evo MTA. Their use is recommended to enhance clinical outcomes, although further
