Impact of Thermomechanical Aging on Marginal Fit and Fracture Resistance of CAD/CAM Endocrowns Fabricated from Different Materials.
Article in Polymers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The restoration of endodontically treated teeth remains a clinical challenge, particularly when substantial coronal tissue loss is present. Endocrowns fabricated using CAD/CAM technologies offer a conservative and esthetic alternative to conventional post-core systems; however, their long-term performance may be influenced by age-related mechanical and thermal stresses. This study evaluated the effect of thermomechanical aging on the marginal adaptation and fracture resistance of endocrowns fabricated from three CAD/CAM materials: zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS), polyetherether ketone (PEEK), and 3D-printed resin. Sixty extracted human molars were endodontically treated and restored with endocrowns produced from these materials (
