The Optimal Position of the Implant Supporting Distal Extension Removable Denture: Case Reports and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The management of distal extension edentulism by removable partial denture (RPD), in cases where fixed solutions cannot be considered, poses various challenges inherent in the mixed support of the prosthesis, especially when the edentulism is of a large extent. When an implant is placed to assist a removable denture, it allows ensuring a bio-functional, aesthetic, and comfortable rehabilitation. Additionally, it renders possible resolutions to problems related to conventional RPD. The implant can be placed in proximity or at a distance from abutment teeth, with each position presenting its own advantages and benefits. The choice of the optimal position is made following a clinical examination and cone beam computed tomography. Through two clinical cases, we will illustrate the management of distal edentulism with implant-assisted RPD, then review the key elements to consider during the prosthetic realization in the management of extended edentulism and discuss the parameters involved in the choice of preferred implant sites.
