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

Aim: This Materials and Methods: Sixty-four extracted mandibular first premolars with single canals were standardized and randomly allocated into four groups ( Results: Irrigant penetration was significantly greater in groups with PEB compared with those without PEB at all canal levels ( Conclusion: PEB significantly enhances irrigant penetration, especially in the apical third. Establishing an effective coronal reservoir, regardless of the build-up material used, improves irrigation efficacy.
