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

This study investigated the physicochemical properties of three endodontic bioceramics: MTA Flow White (F), MTA Repair HP (HP), and Nishika Canal Sealer BG multi (BG). Disc-shaped samples were immersed in deionized water for 28 days to analyze pH, calcium ion concentration, mass change, and water sorption. Additionally, the effect of varying powder-to-liquid (or paste) ratios was investigated for F and BG. All samples exhibited mass loss due to surface degradation. Results showed that F exhibited the highest alkalinity (pH 10.8-11.3) and significantly greater calcium ion release (173.3-523.3 ppm) than other materials (
