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

Use of hydrogen peroxide in tooth bleaching can cause microscopic alterations such as increasedsurface depressions, irregularities and elevated surface roughness. Therefore, it is of interest to report the enamel surface effects of two in-office hydrogen peroxide (HP) bleaching gels. Forty-eight intact human premolars were sectioned mesio-distally, creating two halves, which were then assigned to 2 groups. Group I (35% HP with calcium; whiteness HP Blue 35%, FGM) or Group II (40% HP with fluoride/potassium nitrate; Opalescence Boost, Ultradent). Bleaching was performed in a single 40-minute session per manufacturer protocol. Baseline and post-treatment measurements were taken using a spectrophotometer (VITA Easyshade) for color and a laser fluorescence device (DIAGNOdent pen, KaVo) for quantifying demineralization. The 40% hydrogen peroxide gel with fluoride and potassium nitrate produced a superior whitening effect; both bleaching agents resulted in comparable levels of enamel surface demineralization.
