“…There are three common problems the UV-C sterilization process demonstrates: the possibility of thermal deformation, shadowing, and absorption effects [ 4 , 5 , 8 , 27 , 31 ]. As the first potential problem (changes in integrity) already discards reprocessed SUPPE, we opted to leave it on Table 1 column “Changes in integrity or fit.” From our SLR database, 30 studies (51.72%) assess it, of which 21 [ 33 , 35 , 37 , 40 , 44 , 48 , 49 , 51 , 53 , 61 , 62 , 64 , 65 , 67 , 70 , 71 , 73 , 80 , 81 , 82 , 87 ] observe no physical changes within different rounds of sterilization or extenuating conditions.…”
