Gingival Biotypes and its Relation to Biologic Width, Alveolar Bone Thickness, Dehiscence and Fenestration in Mandibular Anterior Region: A CBCT Analysis Study.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Gingival biotype and its relationship to biologic width and alveolar bone thickness may affect surgical periodontal therapy outcomes. Hence, it is vital to assess the gingival biotype prior to any of these treatments for its success. Aim: The study aims to compare the thick and thin gingival biotype in the mandibular anterior region concerning biologic width, buccal bone thickness, prevalence and distribution of dehiscence, and fenestration in lower anterior teeth. Materials and Methods: A total of 30 patients were selected for the study based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Cone Beam Computed Tomography analysis was performed in the mandibular anterior area to assess gingival thickness (biotype), biologic width, buccal bone thickness, dehiscence, and fenestrations. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 26. An independent Results: Our study identified an increased biologic width in the thick gingival biotype, a higher frequency of dehiscence in the thin gingival biotype than in the thick biotype, and a greater mean alveolar bone thickness in the thick biotype group. Conclusion: A statistical difference was not observed between the groups; however, the thick biotype showed better results than the thinner biotype for the periodontal parameters examined.
