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 tilted implant with immediate function is increasingly used in clinical dental therapy for edentulous and partially edentulous patients with excessive bone resorption and the anatomic limitations in the alveolar ridge. However, peri-implant cervical bone loss can be caused by the stress shielding effect. Herein, inspired by the concept of "materiobiology", the mechanical characteristics of materials were considered along with bone biology for tilted implant design. In this study, a novel Ti-35Nb-2Ta-3Zr alloy (TNTZ) implant with low elastic modulus, high strength and favorable biocompatibility was developed. Then the human alveolar bone environment was mimicked in goat and finite element (FE) models to investigate the mechanical property and the related peri-implant bone remodeling of TNTZ compared to commonly used Ti-6Al-4V (TC4) in tilted implantation under loading condition. Next, a layer-by-layer quantitative correlation of the FE and X-ray Microscopy (XRM) analysis suggested that the TNTZ implant present better mechanobiological characteristics including improved load transduction and increased bone area in the tilted implantation model compared to TC4 implant, especially in the upper 1/3 region of peri-implant bone that is "lower stress". Finally, combining the static and dynamic parameters of bone, it was further verified that TNTZ enhanced bone remodeling in "lower stress" upper 1/3 region. This study demonstrates that TNTZ is a mechanobiological optimized tilted implant material that enhances load transduction and bone remodeling.
