Can Male Patient's Age Affect the Cortical Bone Thickness of Jawbone for Dental Implant Placement? A Cohort Study.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Dental implants are among the most common treatments for missing teeth. The thickness of the crestal cortical bone at the potential dental implant site is a critical factor affecting the success rate of dental implant surgery. However, previous studies have predominantly focused on female patients, who are at a high risk of osteoporosis, for the discussion of bone quality and quantity at the dental implant site. This study aimed to investigate the effect of male patients' age on the crestal cortical bone of the jaw at the dental implant site by using dental cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). This study performed dental CBCT on 84 male patients of various ages to obtain tomograms of 288 dental implant sites at the jawbone (41 sites in the anterior maxilla, 95 in the posterior maxilla, 59 in the anterior mandible, and 93 in the posterior mandible) for measuring the cortical bone thickness. A one-way analysis of variance and Scheffe's test were performed on the measurement results to compare the cortical bone thickness at implant sites in the four jaw areas. The correlation between male patient age and cortical bone thickness at the dental implant site was determined. The four jaw areas in order of the cortical bone thickness were as follows: posterior mandible (1.07 ± 0.44 mm), anterior mandible (0.99 ± 0.30 mm), anterior maxilla (0.82 ± 0.32 mm), and posterior maxilla (0.71 ± 0.27 mm). Apart from dental implant sites in the anterior and posterior mandibles, no significant correlation was observed between male patients' age and the cortical bone thickness at the dental implant site.
