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: This study aimed to evaluate the cytocompatibility and odonto-inductive potential of an indigenously developed apitherapeutic pulp capping agent Api-Therapeutic Pulp Guard (ATPG) by assessing cell viability and dentinogenic gene expression using human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). Materials and methods: hDPSCs were exposed to eluates of ATPG and compared with calcium hydroxide (RC-Cal) and control. MTT assay was used to assess cell viability, LIVE/DEAD staining was performed using calcein-AM and ethidium homodimer, and quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) evaluated DSPP gene expression. This comprehensive approach provided complementary insights into cell metabolic activity, membrane integrity, and odontogenic potential of the test materials. Results: ATPG exhibited high cell viability (96.52 %), significantly greater than calcium hydroxide (84.25 %) ( Conclusion: The ATPG formulation demonstrated superior biocompatibility and odontogenic potential compared to conventional calcium hydroxide, underscoring its promise for translation in regenerative endodontic therapy.
