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: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate fluoride (CPP-ACPF) and propolis-based herbal toothpaste in the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity (DH). Materials and Methods: In this clinical trial, 20 patients (7 men and 13 women) who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into two groups. One group received the herbal toothpaste containing propolis (Herbex Results: The mean pain intensity score after 8 weeks significantly decreased in the propolis-based toothpaste group ( Conclusion: The use of both herbal toothpaste containing propolis and CPP-ACPF-containing paste for 8 weeks effectively reduced DH, with a higher desensitizing effect experienced in the former group.
