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

This study aimed to assess the impact of moisture control on the risk of caries progression to root restorations (CAR) made of resin composite (RC) or glass ionomer cements (GIC) under conditions of absolute or inadequate moisture control in an in vitro model. In each of the sixty caries-free human maxillary premolars, standardized mesial and distal cavities were prepared 5 mm apical to the cemento-enamel junction. The specimens were randomly allocated to the experimental groups RC-Z250 (Scotchbond Universal SE & Z250, 3M, Seefeld, Germany), GIC-DF (DeltaFil, DMG, Hamburg, Germany), GIC-EF (Equia Forte, GC, Tokyo, Japan), and GIC-KF (Ketac Fil, 3M, Seefeld, Germany) (n = 15). In each group, restorations were placed either simulating conditions of absolute (Control) or inadequate (Test) moisture control. After water storage for 100d (37°C, 100% humidity), specimens were subjected to thermocycling (10.000 thermal cycles; 5-55°C), and a continuous-culture Lactobacillus rhamnosus biofilm model for 10d. The integrated mineral loss ΔZ was measured along the tooth-restoration interface (dentin wall lesion; DWL) and the outer surface of the root dentin (dentin surface lesion; DSL) using transverse microradiography. Only group RC-Z250 exhibited significant differences in mineral losses ΔZ between Control and Test lesions in DSLs (ΔZ
