1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: To investigate the relationship between different skeletal facial types and anterior alveolar bone thickness with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in an Asian population. Methods: A total of 130 patients with 1,560 healthy anterior teeth were enrolled. On three-dimensional reconstructed images, Frankfurt-mandibular plane angle (FMA) value and angle formed by subspinale, nasion, and supramental (ANB) value were measured, and subjects were categorized into different groups based on their vertical skeletal patterns as well as sagittal jaw relationships. For each tooth, the thickness of alveolar bone was measured at three locations: 1, 3, and 5 mm apical to alveolar bone crest. Descriptive statistics were used. Kruskal-Wallis test, one-way ANOVA, and independent-samples Results: Men's maxillary anterior teeth's lingual alveolar bone thickness was significantly greater than women's (P<0.05). Strong correlations were found between vertical skeletal patterns and lingual alveolar bone thickness of maxillary/mandibular anterior teeth (R Conclusions: The lingual alveolar bone of the maxillary anterior teeth is thicker in males than in females. With the increase of FMA, the anterior alveolar bone gradually became thinner.
