A challenging journey of maxillofacial implants placement and rehabilitation in an irradiated exenterated socket.
Article in Journal of oral biology and craniofacial research. 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
Rehabilitation of a post-exenterated orbital defect is a necessity, to restore a patient's esthetic appearance and help overcome the associated psychosocial stigma. An implant supported prosthesis enjoys a better patient acceptance due to its superior retention and stability. This clinical report highlights the challenges faced in planning, designing and placement of maxillofacial implants in the supra-orbital rim of an exenterated socket post-radiotherapy along with the management of the unexpected complications which developed subsequently. Administration of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, fabrication of a digitally designed surgical guide to ensure predictable implant placement, selection of surface treated implants for better biomechanical anchorage, and a gentler surgical technique for recovery of irradiated hard and soft tissues were measures undertaken during the treatment phase. An effort has been made to point-out the fact that despite the various approaches adopted in an irradiated patient, success of implant placement in such a situation remains a challenge.
