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

In dental surgery today a variety of bone substitutes are used for sinus lift. After the increased application of synthetics during the last decade there has now been a move back to autologous bone transplants, combined with allogenic and xenogenic augmentation materials. The effects of transforming growth factors and recombinant equivalents of bone morphogenetic proteins remain to be seen. Covering the augmented area with a collagen membrane is the basic standard in many cases. Concomitant illnesses of dental origin or of the maxillary sinus have to be assessed prior to any sinus lift. Once complications such as laceration of the Schneiderian membrane, infection or adverse reaction have occurred, early and consistent therapy is required.
