Three-dimensional descriptive study of the pterygomaxillary region related to pterygoid implants: A retrospective study.
Observational study in Scientific reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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 objective of this study was to analyze three-dimensionally the morphological characteristics of the pterygomaxillary region related to pterygoid implants. Volume, height, width and bone density were studied in relation to age, sex and dental status. This retrospective observational study analyzed the CBCT of 52 hemi-maxillas three-dimensionally (females n = 28, males n = 24; dentate = 31, edentulous = 21). Patients were exposed between September 2009 and October 2014, and data collection was performed between November 2015 and May 2016. Bone density, volume, height and width were analyzed in various locations of the maxilla and pterygoid process, and the variables age, gender and dental status patients were compared. The results show that the mean width of the pterygomaxillary joint was 7.5 mm (SD 1.00 mm), mean height was 12.51 mm (SD 1,82 mm) and mean volume was 321.7 mm
