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

A screw-fixed superstructure is predominantly selected for implant prostheses because of the concern regarding developing peri-implantitis, although its infection route remains unclear. Focusing on microleakage from access holes, the present study clinically investigated the bacterial flora in access holes with different sealing materials. We examined 38 sites in 19 patients with two adjacent screw-fixed superstructures. Composite resin was used in the control group, and zinc-containing glass ionomer cement was used in the test group. Bacteria were collected from the access holes 28 days after superstructure placement and were subjected to DNA hybridization analysis. The same patient comparisons of the bacterial counts showed a significant decrease in 14 bacterial species for the red, yellow, and purple complexes in the test group (
