Effect of Customized and Prefabricated Healing Abutments on Peri-Implant Soft Tissue and Bone in Immediate Implant Sites: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07031232 (Assessment of Peri-implant Soft Tissue Modifications Following the Use of Customized Healing Abutments on Subcrestally Placed Implants), which is not on this map. Cited by 22 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of customized healing abutments compared to prefabricated healing abutments in immediate implant sites. Twelve patients requiring single immediate implant placement were divided into two groups: a prefabricated group received prefabricated titanium healing abutments, and a customized group received a polyetheretherketone (PEEK) customized healing abutments fabricated based on the individuals' digital impressions. Outcomes, including peri-implant horizontal and vertical soft tissue alteration, bone level change, volume change, pain score, and pink esthetic score (PES) change, were evaluated at the 1-, 4-, and 6-month follow-ups compared to pre-extraction teeth. At the 1- and 4-month follow-ups, the customized group had a significantly lower buccal volume variation (BVv). At the 6-month follow-up, neither group showed any significant difference in the marginal bone change; however, the customized group had a significantly lower PES change and a lower pain score. In the anterior and premolar regions, the customized group showed the preservation of peri-implant buccal horizontal soft tissue and buccal volume, while in the molar regions, the preservation of papilla height and midfacial height was observed. The morphology of the customized healing abutment demonstrated a better trend in preservation of peri-implant soft tissue, esthetic outcomes, and lower patient discomfort in immediate implant sites.
