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 Implant placement in the posterior maxilla is typically complicated by a shortage of bone. Gelatin sponge could be combined with an appropriate material to enhance mechanical strength and maintain stability of an implant. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical application of bone grafting with bovine bone mixed with gelatin sponge. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty-four patients were divided into a control group (deproteinized bovine bone, n=26) and a test group (deproteinized bovine bone combined with gelatin sponge, n=28). Implants were placed in patients simultaneously after surgery (operation). Cone-beam computed tomography examination was carried out immediately and 6 months after surgery. Space with grafting materials was measured with Mimics software (version 16.0). RESULTS No remarkable differences were found for simultaneous placement, height of residual bone, delayed placement, width of residual bone, graft volume immediately after surgery (V₁), graft volume 6 months after surgery (V₂), or volumetric change rate between the test group and the control group (P>0.05). Graft volume V₂ was remarkably decreased compared with V1 in the control and test groups (P=0.01). There were no significant differences for bone height immediately after surgery (H₁) and bone height at 6 months after surgery (H₂) between the 2 groups. Bone height H₂ was markedly decreased compared with H1 (P<0.05). At 1 year after implantation, there was 1 implant loss in the control group and 2 in the test group. The implant survival rate in the control group was 97.62% and 95.24% in the test group. CONCLUSIONS Absorbable gelatin sponge combined with bovine bone particles was an effective and economical material for use in routine sinus floor elevation surgery.
