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 and Aims: Due to the advances in adhesive dentistry and the emphasis on less invasive principles, a treatment option for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth, called endocrown, has been presented. Using finite element as an in vitro simulation evaluation, this study investigated the effect of different restorative materials and the ferrule height on the biomechanical behavior of endocrowns in endodontically treated maxillary and mandibular central incisors. Materials and Methods: A sound maxillary central incisor and a mandibular central incisor were scanned and fed into Solidworks software for modeling. Endocrowns made of lithium disilicate, zirconia, zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate, and Enamic were modeled by the program. After applying the forces, the maximum von Mises stress values were analyzed in the Ansys software. Results: The maximum von Mises stress on the endocrown, cement, enamel, and dentin of the maxillary central incisor was significantly higher than that on the endocrown, cementum, enamel, and dentin of the mandibular central incisor. Conclusion: It is recommended that a minimum ferrule be used in the central maxillary tooth to reduce the stress on the cementum. In the central mandibular tooth, using endocrowns made of Enamic is recommended because of less stress on the cementum.
