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.

Abstract

aimThe current randomized controlled clinical trial assessed the effect of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (I-PRF) combined with demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) compared to DFDBA alone in the management of intrabony defects of stage-III periodontitis patients. METHODOLOGY: Following sample size calculation, twenty stage-III periodontitis patients with ≥ 5 mm clinical attachment level (CAL)-loss and ≥ 3 mm intrabony defects were randomized into test (I-PRF + DFDBA; n = 10) and control (DFDBA; n = 10) groups. CAL (primary outcome), periodontal probing depth (PPD), gingival recession depth (GRD), full-mouth plaque scores (FMPS), full-mouth bleeding scores (FMBS), radiographic linear defect depth (RLDD), and bone fill (secondary outcomes) were examined at baseline, 3, 6, and 9 months post-surgically.

resultsI-PRF + DFDBA and DFDBA independently demonstrated significant intragroup CAL-gain, PPD-, and RLDD-reduction at 3, 6, and 9 months (p < 0.05), with no significant intergroup differences observed (p > 0.05). CAL-gain (mean ± SD) of 2.40 ± 0.70 mm and 2.50 ± 0.85 mm and PPD-reduction of 3.50 ± 1.18 mm and 2.80 ± 0.42 mm were demonstrated for I-PRF + DFDBA and DFDBA at 9 months respectively. Both groups showed significant intragroup RLDD improvement, with a RLDD of 3.58 ± 0.66 mm and 3.89 ± 1.57 mm for I-PRF + DFDBA and DFDBA at 9 months respectively. Stepwise linear regression analysis revealed that baseline RLDD and bone fill at 9 months were significant predictors of CAL (p < 0.05).

conclusionWithin the present study's limitations, DFDBA with or without I-PRF resulted in significant improvement in clinical and radiographic periodontal parameters in the surgical treatment of periodontal intrabony defects of stage-III periodontitis patients. Addition of I-PRF to DFDBA does not appear to significantly enhance the DFDBA's reparative/regenerative outcomes. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Within the current study's limitations, routinely adding I-PRF to DFDBA cannot be recommended to significantly improve DFDBA's treatment outcomes in intrabony defects.
