A Comparison of Elevation, Perforation Rate, and Time Spent for the Crestal Sinus Elevation Intervened by Piezosurgery, CAS-Kit, and Osteotome in a Novel Goat Model.
Article in Journal of maxillofacial and oral surgery, 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: This study aimed to compare the differences among Piezosurgery, CAS-kit, and Osteotome regarding safe elevation, perforation rate, and time spent and to observe and analyze different sinus lifting efficacy of the three methods. Materials and Methods: Twenty-one fresh goat heads (42 sinuses) were investigated. CBCT images confirmed the feasibility of the goat model. The maxillary sinus was successively lifted to 5, 7, and 9 mm by Piezosurgery, CAS-kit, and Osteotome until the sinus membrane was perforated or lifted to 9 mm. In the end, final elevation, sinus perforation, and time spent were recorded. Results: Piezosurgery and CAS-kit lifted sinuses to relatively higher heights than did Osteotome ( Conclusions: The lifting height of the Osteotome was limited, but it took the shortest time for sinus lifting. Piezosurgery and CAS-kit had higher lifting heights and lower perforation rates compared with Osteotome.
