Variance of radiographical alveolar bone mineral density by the anatomical morphology of mandibular bone.
Article in Heliyon, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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: Evaluating the bone mineral density (BMD) of alveolar bone is useful for dental treatments. The DentalSCOPE is an image analysis system developed to evaluate the BMD of alveolar bone. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between cross-sectional anatomical size and BMD value. Materials and methods: Thirty-four subjects (adult dental patients and volunteers) participated in this study. Intraoral radiographs of the mandibular molar region were acquired. Using DentalSCOPE software, three to four line-shaped regions of interest (ROIs) were obtained in the alveolar septum region. Cross-sectional CT images of mandible at the same position to above mentioned line-shaped ROI was reconstructed from subject's dental CBCT images. The measurements were performed using cross-sectional CT images and compared with BMD value. Results and discussion: For stepwise multiple linear regression analysis, the buccal-lingual width of the mandibular body (mandible width) and the CT value of the cancellous bone were adopted as explanatory variables that affected the BMD of the mandible. The BMD value increased by 20 mg/mm Conclusion: In the clinical application of alveolar bone BMD, the effect of the anatomical morphology of alveolar bone should be taken into consideration.
