Characteristics of mandibular anterior alveolar bone in patients with different degrees of periodontitis: a retrospective study based on CBCT.
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 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
objectivesTo investigate the alveolar bone characteristics of mandibular anterior teeth in patients with periodontitis. MATERIALS AND
methods100 patients with periodontitis were selected and grouped according to the degrees of alveolar bone resorption, age, gender, and tooth type. The labial thickness of the alveolar bone, the degree of alveolar bone resorption, angulation between the long axis of teeth and alveolar process, alveolar bone height and density of the mandibular anterior teeth were measured.
resultsThere were significant differences in alveolar bone morphology between these three groups. Compared with the mild and moderate groups, the severe group showed that the alveolar bone in the half of the root crown was thickened, the alveolar bone height was decreased, the cancellous alveolar bone density was increased, and the cortical alveolar bone density was decreased. The resorption of alveolar bone was characterized by greater resorption of proximal bone than that of labial bone with increased bone loss. There were also differences in alveolar bone characteristics among patients of different ages, genders, and tooth types.
conclusionsThe morphology of the mandibular anterior alveolar bone changed accordingly with the degree of periodontitis. Labial alveolar bone thickness and cortical alveolar bone density were negatively correlated with the degree of periodontitis, while alveolar bone height and cancellous alveolar bone density were positively correlated with the degree of periodontitis. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: These results allow clinicians to better understand the alveolar bone morphology of the mandibular anterior teeth in patients with periodontitis, facilitating better treatment design and avoiding complications.
