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
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the abutment manufacturing method (CAD/CAM milling or 3D-printing) and the presence of a screw access hole on the fatigue behavior of adhesively cemented zirconia restorations. Zirconia (3YSZ) discs, representing prosthetic abutments (Ø= 10 mm, 3 mm in thickness) were fabricated by simulated CAD/CAM milling (M) or lithography-based 3D-printing (3D), either with a screw access hole (Ø=2.5 mm, filled with resin composite) or without (Rigid) and allocated into four groups: M-Screw, M-Rigid, 3D-Screw and 3D-Rigid. Restorative zirconia discs (4YSZ; Ø=10 mm, 1 mm thickness) were adhesively cemented to the abutments using a dual-cure resin cemented. Cyclic fatigue test was performed (n = 15). Data were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier, Log-rank (Mantel-Cox) and Two-way ANOVA supplemented by fractography and finite element analysis. No significant effect of the manufacturing method was observed on fatigue behavior (p ≥ 0.05). Rigid groups exhibited no failures during testing. Conversely, the presence of a screw access hole significantly reduced fatigue behavior (p < 0.05), with similar mean fatigue failure loads for 3D-Screw (2,286 N) and M-Screw (2,273 N) groups. The manufacturing method of the zirconia abutments (3D-printing or milling) did not influence the fatigue behavior of the restorations. However, the presence of a screw access hole in the abutments significantly reduced the fatigue behavior of the specimen.
