Correlation of dentinal penetration and microleakage of bioceramic with calcium hydroxide and resin based root canal sealers- A CLSM study.
Article in Journal of conservative dentistry and endodontics, 2026. 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
Context: The role of Root canal sealers is a very crucial role in endodontic therapy by forming a hermetic seal within the canal, filling minor voids between the dentinal wall and gutta-percha to prevent microleakage from bacterial infiltration from the oral cavity and tissues of periapical areas. Aim: This study aims to compare and evaluate the depth of penetration and microleakage of AH Plus, Bio-C, Sealapex, and MTA Fillapex using a confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). Subjects and Methods: This study evaluated sealer penetration and microleakage in 170 single-rooted teeth divided into two groups ( Statistical Analysis: Data were analyzed using paired t-tests, Tukey Honestly Significant Difference, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation as statistical tools. Results: Group III has demonstrated the highest sealer penetration at both 3 mm and 5 mm levels, and exhibits the best microleakage resistance. However, minimum penetration has been shown by Group I and Group II at 3 mm and 5 mm, respectively. Group II has shown the highest microleakage among the sealers. Conclusion: Bio-C sealer performed best, whereas Sealapex has shown the worst both in sealer penetration and microleakage.
