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
This study aims to histologically and immunohistochemically evaluate the effect recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rh-BMP2) injected in gingival tissue has on the acceleration of the epithelial migration from the wound edges and epithelial cell proliferation after implant surgery. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study includes 20 patients who underwent bilateral implant surgeries in the premolar-molar region of the mandible, followed by guided bone regeneration. Each patient received an implant in both locations, but rh-BMP2 was only on the right side. At 9 days from the surgery, a gingival biopsy was performed 3 mm distally to the last implant. In total, 20 samples were collected from the left side (control group #1) and 20 from right (test group #1). This was repeated at a 4-month interval during healing abutment placements. Tissues were processed and stained with hematoxylin-eosin and then immunohistochemically for the expression of Ki-67 and further histological examination.
resultComplete closure of the epithelium with new cell formation was observed in the 55% test group and 20% control group after 9 days. At 4 months, although 100% samples of all groups had complete epithelial closure, the test group showed that the epithelial cells were more organized and mature due to the increased number of blood vessels. The average number of new epithelial cells was 17.15 ± 7.545 and 16.12 ± 7.683 cells per mm in test group, respectively, at 9 days and 4 months and 10.99 ± 5.660 and 10.95 ± 5.768 in control groups.
conclusionEvident from histological observations, rh-BMP-2 can accelerate the closure of gingival wounds, the healing process of epithelial gingival tissue, and the formation of epithelial cells in patients undergoing dental implant treatment.
