Comparison of periodontal health in children with restored primary teeth using different restorative materials.
Article in Bioinformation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 quality of the restorative material used can have a significant impact on periodontal well-being in initial dentition though the comparative information is scarce. In this cross sectional study periodontal status of 240 children between 4-9 years of age fitted with restored primary molars with glass ionomer cement (GIC), composite resin, amalgam and stainless steel crowns (SSC) were compared and evaluated. Periodontal parameters such as gingivial index, plaque index, probing depth and gingivial recession were measured. It was proved that SSC caused much more inflammation and accumulation in gums than other materials (p<0.001) and GIC and composite resin did not differ in terms of periodontal outcome.
