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

Background: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the shear bond strength (SBS) of glass ionomer cement (GIC) to primary molars treated with two commercially available silver diamine fluoride (SDF) solutions, with and without potassium iodide (KI). Materials and methods: Eighty extracted human primary molars were sectioned, embedded in acrylic resin, and artificially demineralized. The samples were divided into four groups: (I) Kids-e-SDF + dentin conditioner, (II) Kedo SDF + dentin conditioner, (III) Kedo SDF + KI + dentin conditioner, and (IV) dentin conditioner only (control). GIC was applied, and SBS was measured using a universal testing machine after thermocycling. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey's Results: Group III (Kedo SDF + KI) demonstrated the highest SBS (14.15 ± 0.10 MPa), followed by groups I (12.04 ± 0.39 MPa) and II (12.25 ± 0.12 MPa). The control group exhibited the lowest SBS (11.33 ± 0.12 MPa). Statistical analysis confirmed significant differences among all groups ( Conclusion: The use of SDF significantly enhances GIC bonding to dentin, with the highest SBS observed in the SDF + KI group. The addition of KI may optimize adhesion while mitigating esthetic concerns. These findings support the clinical use of SDF and KI as a promising approach in minimally invasive pediatric restorative dentistry. How to cite this article: Baldawa H, Ravindran V, Jeevanandan G,
