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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThe anatomical characteristics of the maxillary labial alveolar bone play a crucial role in the treatment planning of immediate implant placement. The sagittal root position (SRP) and alveolar bone concavity are closely related to anatomical characteristics in determining the ideal implant position. This study evaluated the SRP and labial alveolar bone concavity in the maxillary anterior teeth area.

methodsCone-beam computed tomography images of 120 samples involving 720 teeth were uploaded to the medical imaging software. The SRP was classified as Class I, II, III, or IV, and the concavity of labial alveolar bone was measured. A T test was performed to compare measurements between the central and lateral incisors, between the central incisors and canines, and between the lateral incisors and canine.

resultsThe majority of the SRPs of the maxillary anterior teeth were class I (engaging the labial cortical plate) with frequencies of 98.3%, 85.8%, and 81.7% for the canines, lateral incisors, and central incisors, respectively. In terms of concavity of labial alveolar bone in maxillary tooth area, canines also had the largest mean value (139.5°), followed by lateral incisors, whereas central incisors has the smallest mean value (131.7°). The results of the T test revealed a significant difference ( p < 0.001) in labial alveolar bone concavity between central and lateral incisors, between central incisors and canines, and between lateral incisors and canines.

conclusionMost maxillary anterior teeth were classified as Class I SRP, Class III SRP was the least prevalent, and the concavity of the labial alveolar bone significantly differed between the central and lateral incisors, between the central incisors and canines, and between the lateral incisors and canines. In addition, the canines had the highest mean alveolar bone concavity angle, indicating that less concavity in the canines area.
