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

This study aims to compare the surface roughness and fracture resistance of implant-supported permanent crowns additively manufactured using composite resins (Crowntec, VarseoSmile) versus subtractively manufactured polymer-infiltrated hybrid ceramic (VITA Enamic) at various wall thicknesses using an experimental setup as close to clinical as possible. 180 crowns were fabricated in three thicknesses (1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 mm) and cemented onto titanium abutments. Experimental groups underwent thermal aging (10,000 cycles) to simulate one year of clinical service. Surface roughness was measured via profilometry, and fracture resistance was assessed using a universal testing machine. Composite resin crowns exhibited lower surface roughness and lower fracture resistance than subtractively manufactured crowns. No significant difference in fracture resistance was found between materials at 1.0 mm (
