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

Background: A key factor for the success or failure of an implant is how the stresses are transferred to the surrounding bone. The implant‒abutment connection (IAC) is paramount for implant success. The purpose of this finite element analysis (FEA) study was to evaluate the stress distribution in and around three different implant‒abutment interfaces with platform-switched and platform-matched abutments using the finite element method (FEM). Methods: Three distinct types of IAC were selected: tri-channel internal connection, conical connection, and internal hex connection. Six models were generated, three in platform-switched and three in non-platform-switched configuration. Computer-Aided Three-Dimensional Interactive Application (CATIA) V5 R20 software was used to generate virtual models of the implants and the mandible. The models were transferred to Analysis of Systems (ANSYS) 15.0 software, in which the models were meshed and underwent FEA. Results: On the crestal bone, the highest von Mises stresses in platform-switched abutments were noticed in the internal hex implant‒abutment system (370 MPa), followed by the tri-channel implant‒abutment system (190 MPa) and conical implant‒abutment system (110 MPa). On the implant and the abutment screw, the highest von Mises stresses were observed in the internal hex implant‒abutment system, followed by the conical implant abutment system and tri-channel implant‒abutment system. Platform-switched implants had a more favorable stress distribution on crestal bone. Conclusion: Within the constraints of the current study, the internal hex connection exhibited the highest stress. In contrast, the conical abutment connection with platform switching configuration had more favorable stress distribution in crestal bone than other implant abutment systems.
