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

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the postoperative pain in patients using 8.25 % sodium hypochlorite compared to 5.25 % Sodium Hypochlorite concentration without activation and using sonic and ultrasonic activation methods after single visit root canal treatment. Methods: In this double blind randomized trial, a total of 120 participants mandibular premolar with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis were included and randomly divided into 6 groups based on the different concentration of sodium hypochlorite and activation methods (sonic & ultrasonic activation) i.e. Group 1: 5.25 % NaOCl with no activation method, Group 2: 8.25 % NaOCl with no activation method, Group 3: 5.25 % NaOCl with sonic activation, Group 4: 5.25 % NaOCl with Ultrasonic activation, Group 5: 8.25 % NaOCl with sonic activation, Group 6: 8.25 % NaOCl with ultrasonic activation. The presence of postoperative pain was assessed 24, 48, and 72 h after treatment and recorded using the visual analogue scale (VAS). Results: Intragroup postoperative pain in all six groups reduced after 24 h, 48 h and 72 h, showing statistically significant differences. At all-time intervals, postoperative pain was higher in the groups that used ultrasonic stimulation. Conclusion: At all-time intervals, there was no significant difference in the presence of postoperative pain between the 8.25 % NaOCl and 5.25 % NaOCl irrigation solutions with no activation method and sonic activation compared to ultrasonic activation.
