Effect of n-Butyl Cyanoacrylate Coating on the Microhardness of MM-MTA After Exposure to Moisture and Human Blood.

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
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of n-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) coating of freshly mixed mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) on its microhardness after setting under conditions of moisture and human blood exposure. MicroMega MM-MTA samples were prepared using Teflon molds (6 mm × 4 mm). Four experimental groups (n = 4) were established: control (MTA + phosphate-buffered saline (PBS)), MTA coated with NBCA (PeriAcryl) + PBS, MTA + blood + PBS, and MTA coated with NBCA + blood + PBS. Samples assigned to the blood-exposure groups were exposed to human blood for 15 min, rinsed, and subsequently stored in PBS. Prior to microhardness testing, all samples were incubated in PBS for seven days. Microhardness was measured using a Vickers microhardness tester, with five indentations performed on each specimen (20 measurements per group). Data were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk test for normality, Levene's test, and two-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey's post hoc test. The analysis revealed significant differences among the experimental groups (
