New Universal Bulk-Fill Composites with Translucency Shift: Impact of Rapid Curing and Ageing on Polymerisation and Mechanical Properties.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
This study investigated real-time polymerisation kinetics and mechanical properties under accelerated ageing of novel universal bulk-fill composites incorporating reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) agent ß-allyl sulfone, designed for anterior and posterior applications. Five bulk-fill composites were tested: Tetric Plus Fill and Tetric Plus Flow (new universal composites); their predecessors, Tetric PowerFill and Tetric PowerFlow (Ivoclar); and RAFT-free Ecosite Bulk Fill (DMG). Specimens were polymerised for 3 s (~3000 mW/cm
