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
(1) Background: In oral surgery, bone regeneration is achieved through various types of bone grafts or bone substitutes and its success is usually analyzed by micro-computed tomography and histomorphometry. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of Raman spectroscopy as an alternative to other techniques for bone quality evaluation during a standard oral surgery procedure. (2) Methods: The preliminary evaluation of bone augmentation during maxillary sinus floor elevation oral surgery was performed by Raman spectroscopy for several (five) patients during and after the surgery and the results were compared with postoperative data from histomorphometry, EDX and SEM analysis. (3) Results: After analyzing all the results for the bone samples according to the four methods (Raman, EDX, SEM and Histology) that were used in our study, the obtained result of the investigation provided a good augmentation process for three of the patients and partly successful augmentation process for two of the patients. The primary evaluation using Raman spectroscopy (in vivo and ex vivo investigation) was confirmed by histological results, thus having a first step for validation of Raman as a new method of imaging for dentistry. (4) Conclusions: Our results show that Raman spectroscopy could provide fast and reliable insight on bone condition during augmentation of the maxillary sinus floor. We emphasize the advantages and drawbacks of the proposed techniques as its accuracy could increase by performing larger size clinical trials. Using the Raman mapping, the method can serve as an alternative to histology.
