CBCT analysis of mandibular position and bilateral symmetry in adult female patients with a deep overbite before and after flat bite plate treatment: a retrospective study.
Article in European journal of medical research, 2024. 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
aimTo determine whether three-dimensional measurements can assess symmetry and mandibular position with greater accuracy than traditional two-dimensional measurements.
methodsMimics 19 software was used for three-dimensional measurements of 20 adult female patients' cone-beam computed tomography with deep overbite before and after flat bite plate treatment. Differences in mandible position and bilateral symmetry were assessed using the paired t test.
resultsThree-dimensional measurements showed that the condylar distance in the pogonion-Frankfort horizontal, pogonion-coronal, right and left gonion-coronal planes was significantly higher after flat bite plate treatment. However, flat bite treatment did not affect the distance between the vertex of the condyles and the gonion of each measurement reference plane. After flat bite plate treatment, the mandibles of adult female patients had rotated backward and downward, with the condyle as the centre; the chin had been backward. Bilateral symmetry remained unchanged.
conclusionsFlat bite plate treatment in adult female patients resulted in a downward and downward rotation of the mandible, with the condyle as the centre, chin backward, and no significant change in bilateral symmetry.
