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

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effects of customized zirconia barrier membranes produced for guided bone regeneration (GBR) approaches on bone healing researched with histological and histomorphometric methods. Methods: The digital modeling was used to create zirconia barrier membranes suitable for the defect on the tibia bone. The membranes were designed using a 3D software system and transferred to the CAD/CAM software system in stl. Afterward, zirconia discs (1400 Mpa) (Aconia BSM- D98 × 16, HT+, Germany) were milled and sintered. Titanium mesh, titanium reinforced d-PTFE, and zirconia barrier membranes were used to cover the defects. As a control group, one defect was left empty. 3 and 6 weeks of the healing term, preparates were obtained from each group after animals were sacrificed. New bone formation, amount of the remaining grafts and tissue response parameters were analyzed histomorphometrically and histologically. Results: The highest percentage of newly formed bone in the early period was observed in the titanium mesh membrane group (26.39 ± 5.38); In the late period, this rate was highest in the zirconia group (64.42 ± 9.95). However, no statistically significant difference was found in both periods between the groups. The amount of residual graft progressed at a low level in both periods without any difference in the other groups except the control group. In the 3rd and 6th weeks, the amount of new bone formation was the lowest in the control group. No foreign body reaction or necrosis was observed in any of the defects. Conclusion: With the limitation of the study, it has been concluded that effective results can be obtained with customized zirconia barrier membranes in GBR procedures.
