Shellac-based encapsulation model incorporating calcium fluoride for oral care applications.
Article in Biomaterials translational, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Fluoride-releasing systems are widely incorporated into dental products to prevent caries; however, fluoride ions readily interact with calcium compounds in oral formulations, resulting in deactivation and reduced effectiveness. To overcome this limitation, a simple extrusion method was designed to fabricate shellac-based biopolymer beads capable of encapsulating fluoride. The resulting beads had an average diameter of 2.54 ± 0.22 mm, with theoretical analysis supporting particle size dependence on extrusion tube diameter. Structural and stability characterization was conducted using optical and electron microscopy, elemental analysis, vibrational spectroscopy, and thermal profiling, confirming
