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
Objectives: To find out the effect of dentin surface disinfectants (Chlorhexidine (CHX), Er, Cr: YSGG laser (ECYL), and Iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe Methodology: The present in vitro trial was approved by King Khalid University. The study was completed in four months, August 15, 2025 to December 15, 2025. Forty mandibular primary second molar teeth exhibiting a score of four as per the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) were obtained. The criteria employed to procure CAD included visual inspection, evaluation of surface hardness, and staining. Subsequently, the teeth were distributed into four cohorts (n=10) based on different methods of disinfection. Group-1: No disinfection, Group-2: CHX, Group-3: ECYL, and Group-4: Fe Results: The widest zone of inhibition was presented by Group-2 (CHX) (15.95 Conclusion: Er, Cr: YSGG laser demonstrated satisfactory antimicrobial potency and shear bond strength when used as a cavity sterilant on caries-affected dentin of primary molars.
