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

objectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate the bond strength of different computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) hybrid materials for milling and 3D-printing with and without thermocycling. Different repair protocols were tested. MATERIALS AND

methodsTwo milled and one experimental 3D-printed hybrid material were tested with three repair systems (MO [universal primer and dental adhesive]; GC [Repair Kit]; Voco Cimara [Repair Kit]). A total of 180 specimens were prepared (n = 60 per material). Half underwent thermocycling (30,000 cycles, 5°C-55°C), while the others were stored in distilled water (37°C). Shear bond strength was determined using a universal testing machine. Fracture modes were analyzed microscopically, and selected samples were examined via scanning electron microscopy. Data were analyzed by three-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's and Bonferroni post hoc tests (p < 0.05).

resultsThe results of the present study showed that the choice of repair protocol and the tested material significantly influenced the shear bond strength. MO achieved the highest shear bond strength values among all tested materials before and after thermocycling. After thermocycling, only GC in combination with the experimental 3D-printed material depicted an increase in shear bond strength (12.55 → 14.51 MPa). Regarding the tested milled materials, thermocycling reduced shear bond strength across all protocols.

conclusionsShear bond strength was significantly influenced by the type of CAD/CAM material and repair protocol used. Thermocycling reduced shear bond strength in milled materials, while the 3D-printed material showed improved values with specific protocols. Clinicians should be aware that both the choice of CAD/CAM material and the repair protocol significantly affect bond strength.
