CBCT Evaluation of Buccolingual Orientation of Inferior Alveolar Canal in Mandibular Posterior Region for Implant Planning.
Article in International journal of dentistry, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Purpose: Inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) can be subjected to iatrogenic injury during implant surgical procedures. The purpose of this retrospective study was to identify the buccolingual orientation of IAN in posterior mandible as adjunct information for implant planning and to estimate ethnicity-, sex-, and side-related variations in Malaysian population. Results: Overall, most of the IANs were located on the lingual sides of the second molar regions (left: 71.9%; right: 71.1%) and at the centers of the first molar regions (left: 57.9%; right: 47.10%) and exited through the mental foramen before the second premolar regions. There was statistically significant difference in the buccolingual position of the IAN between the sexes in the left second premolar regions ( Conclusion: From the second molar to the second premolar, the buccal bone width decreased while the lingual bone width increased. There were variations between ethnicities, sexes, and sides among Malaysians.
