Extension implants in the atrophic posterior maxilla: 1-year results of a retrospective case-series.
Article in Journal of dental sciences, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
background/purposeBlade implants account for one of the most debated dental implants design in scientific literature. They have been reconsidered by clinicians since their re-classification by Food and Drug Administration in 2014. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe present study aimed to evaluate the outcome of newly manufactured extension implants in the treatment of moderate atrophic posterior maxillae. All the patients enrolled in the present retrospective case series study showed a moderate bone atrophy in the posterior maxilla with a maximum residual height ranging between 4 mm and 8 mm. Implants were inserted with the aid of an electro-magnetic device, and then they covered with screws and left healing. Three months after, implants were exposed and loaded.
resultsDifference between the marginal bone level at the 3-month evaluation (5.57 ± 0.67 mm) and that at baseline (5.67 ± 0.55 mm) appeared to be not significant (p-value = 0.63). At the 12-month evaluation, the marginal bone level (4.95 ± 0.45 mm) underwent significant decrease respect to baseline value as proven by significant change at marginal bone level (-0.62 ± 0.51 mm with a p-value = 0.01).
conclusionThe results of the present study suggested a positive 12-month outcome for extension implants in the rehabilitation of the moderate atrophic maxilla, without the need of extensive reconstructive surgeries and grafting procedures.
