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

Achieving an acceptable adhesive interface is necessary for the long-term success of composite restorations in primary teeth. This study compared the three-dimensional internal adaptation of composite restorations in primary second molars among four prespecified universal adhesive product-application protocol combinations using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). Seventy-six extracted primary second molars were randomly allocated to four experimental groups (
