Pre-adjusted Three-Dimensional Plate Employing Printing versus Conventional Plate in the Management of Mandibular Fractures - A Comparative Study.
Article in Annals of maxillofacial surgery. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of pre-adjusted three-dimensional (3D) plating system employing 3D printing with conventional 3D plating in the management of mandibular fractures. Materials and Methods: A randomised, clinical trial was conducted where the study sample ( Results: Statistically significant difference was seen for the number of bends required ( Discussion: The application of pre-adjusted 3D plate is superior to conventional 3D plating in terms of reducing number of bends, duration of fixation and pain during adaptation.
