Quantitative assessment of condyle positional changes before and after orthognathic surgery based on fused 3D images from cone beam computed tomography.
Observational study in Clinical oral investigations, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesTo establish one method that can be used to quantitatively evaluate the condyle positional changes with 3D images in postoperative mandibular prognathism patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis is a retrospective observational study. Twenty-one patients who underwent bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) were scanned with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for temporomandibular joints (TMJs) at 1 week preoperatively (T

conclusionsFused three-dimensional images can be used to qualitatively and quantitatively evaluate condyle positional changes. The condylar position might be stable at 3 months postoperatively. The condyles of most of patients did not fully return to their preoperative position within 1 year after the operation. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: One method for fusing images has been established to detect the condylar positional changes. This method may be applied to estimate the bony changes of condyle, even bony changes in other part of dentomaxillofacial region. Meanwhile, the data of condyle positional changes from asymptomatic patients after the surgery within 1 year can be used as a reference for further exploration of the relationship between orthognathic surgery and the occurrence of osteoarthritis postoperatively in the future. KEY POINTS: • By fused 3D images, the change of condylar position after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy can be observed intuitively. • For the patients with mandibular prognathism, the condylar position would be stable at 3 months postoperatively. • The condyles of most mandibular prognathism patients did not fully return to their preoperative position within 1 year after operation.
