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
objectiveTo evaluate the formation of mixed-species biofilms of Candida albicans and methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) on the surface of a 3D-printed denture base resin, as well as its surface properties, under varying printing parameters. METHODOLOGY: Discs (n=40 per group, 10×1.2 mm) of a denture base resin (priZma 3D Bio Denture) were fabricated using two 3D-printers-Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and Digital Light Processing (DLP)-at three different angles (0°, 45°, or 90°). Surface roughness was measured using a digital profilometer and expressed as Ra (µm). For surface energy (SE) analysis, contact angles were measured using a tensiometer. Discs were incubated at 37 °C for 90 minutes and 48 hours to enable biofilm formation using C. albicans and MSSA inocula. Cell viability was assessed by colony-forming unit (CFU/mL) counts, and metabolic activity was evaluated using the XTT assay (absorbance). Microbial counts and XTT results were analyzed by three-way ANOVA (printer type, printing angle, incubation period). Surface roughness was analyzed by two-way ANOVA (printer type, printing angle), with Tukey's test and a significance level of 0.05.
resultsFor both CFU/mL and XTT assays, incubation period was the only significant factor (p<0.001 and p=0.006, respectively), while other factors and interactions were not statistically significant (p>0.05). Surface roughness was significantly influenced by printer type, printing angle, and their interaction (p=0.027). The LCD 0° and LCD 90° groups produced smoother surfaces compared with LCD 45° (p=0.002), which showed similar values to all DLP groups regardless of angle (p>0.05). The DLP printer did not show significant roughness variations across the tested angles (p>0.05). The LCD groups presented numerically lower SE values compared to the DLP groups.
conclusionThe LCD system performs better than DLP in reducing surface roughness at 0° and 90°. Moreover, the analyzed factors did not significantly affect microbial adhesion or the formation of mixed-species biofilms.
