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

objectiveTo assess the quality of reporting by randomized controlled trial (RCT) related to dental implants in China during 2000 to 2012 by using the revised Jadad scale and consolidated standards of reporting trials (CONSORT) (2010) statement.

methodsThe following electronic databases were searched: Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, PubMed, and EMBASE. A total of 19 journals of stomatology in China were also searched manually. The qualities of RCT with dental implant published between 2000 and 2012 were assessed using CONSORT (2010) statement and revised Jadad scale.

resultsTwenty-eight RCTs related to dental implants were identified. The quality of reporting in 28 articles was low. The mean revised Jadad score was 1.29 ± 0.71 and the CONSORT (2010) score was 9.75 ± 3.60.

conclusionThe methodological qualities of the included studies on dental implants are generally low, and reporting quality remain unsatisfactory.
