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

Background/purpose: Compromised structure in endodontically treated teeth requires reliable luting agents to ensure durable post-restoration. This study investigated the bonding strength and void formation of self-adhesive resin cement (SARC) used with polyethylene fiber posts in endodontically treated teeth, an essential aspect of post-endodontic restorations, especially when the remaining tooth structure is compromised. Materials and methods: Thirty-five extracted single-rooted human mandibular premolars were divided into five groups (n = 7 per group) based on different cementation protocols: Group 1 and 2 received SARC with adhesive pretreatment, Group 3 and 4 received SARC without adhesive pretreatment, and Group 5 received conventional adhesive resin cement (CAR). Micro-computed tomography (Micro-CT) was used to evaluate void formation and distribution, while push-out bond strength (POBS) testing and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed to assess bond strength and analyze failure modes. Results: Micro CT analysis revealed, SARC with or without adhesive successfully demonstrated the smallest void volume in coronal and apical regions ( Conclusion: These findings indicate the clinical viability of SARC, especially without adhesive pretreatment as an effective and simplified post-cementation method, particularly in cases with restricted visibility. This approach offers reduced void formation, contributing to improved long-term durability of the restoration.
