Subjective and objective evaluation of masticatory function in patients with bimaxillary implant-supported prostheses.
Article in Journal of oral rehabilitation, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
backgroundPeople perform poorly in masticatory function tests despite well-functioning prostheses. However, it is unclear whether there is an agreement between subjective and objective measures of mastication.
objectivesTo investigate the association between subjective and objective measures of masticatory function in patients with bimaxillary implant-supported prostheses. MATERIALS AND
methodsAn experimental group (n = 25, age = 70.6 ± 7.5 years, eight women) with bimaxillary implant-supported fixed prostheses and a control group (n = 25, age = 69.0 ± 5.3, 13 women) with natural dentition were recruited. The participants in the experimental group were included if they had been using the prosthesis for at least a year and had no obvious complaints with their prostheses. The control group was people with natural dentition and without any prostheses or complaints related to the masticatory system. The masticatory function was evaluated objectively with food comminution and mixing ability tests, and subjectively with jaw function limitation scale (JLFS) and oral health impact profile (OHIP).
resultsThe experimental group performed poorly in both objective tests (p < .001). However, there was no significant differences between the two groups in total JFLS (p = .114) and OHIP (p = .312) scores. Though, there were certain positive correlations between the food comminution test and JFLS subdomains in the control group, and a positive correlation between food comminution test and specific subdomains of OHIP in the experimental group indicating poor correlation between the subjective and objective measures.
conclusionAlthough patients with implant prostheses show poor masticatory performance, there is no agreement in the objective and subjective measures of mastication.
