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

Dental caries is a highly prevalent multifactorial oral disease that can cause both local and systemic lesions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro antiseptic effect of a topical solution containing polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride (PHMGH) and its possible toxic effects in vivo. PHMGH was tested (0.31-625.0 ppm) against Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sanguinis, Streptococcus salivarius, Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus sobrinus, Lactobacillus casei, and Enterococcus faecalis by determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), minimum biofilm inhibitory concentration (MBIC
