Effects of demineralization around orthodontic brackets bonded with different adhesive agents on fatigue-based shear bond strength: an in vitro comparative study.
Article in BMC oral health, 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
BACKGROUND AND
aimThere is limited evidence regarding the effect of demineralization around orthodontic brackets on shear bond strength (SBS). The aim of this in vitro fatigue study was to evaluate the effect of demineralization developing around orthodontic brackets bonded with different adhesive agents on fatigue-based SBS under laboratory conditions.
methodsA total of 60 extracted human maxillary premolars bonded with Gemini metal brackets were randomly allocated into three groups (n = 20). Bracket bonding was performed using Transbond™ XT (acid etching + primer + adhesive) in Group 1, GC Ortho Connect
resultsThere were no significant differences in demineralization values among the groups at either T0 or T1 (p > 0.05). However, all groups showed a significant increase in demineralization at T1 compared with T0 (p < 0.05). Group 2 (GC Ortho Connect
conclusionsIncreased demineralization may negatively affect fatigue-based SBS and increase the risk of hard tissue damage. Under demineralized conditions, GC Ortho Connect
