Managing Atrophic Thin Crest by Ridge Splitting Technique before Implant Placement.
Article in Contemporary clinical dentistry. 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
Critical alveolar ridge defects can result from several causes. Ridge expansion is a technique that aims to increase the width of the bone crest. A male patient presented an edentulous segment which leads to be careful concerning the adjacent teeth. Through this case report, the used technique was explained with all steps and was combined with guided bone regeneration (GBR). The particularity of this case was the membrane exposure during the healing period before placing the crowns, resulting in bone resorption. This resorption was stable after restauration and follow-up. Ridge split is indicated in cases where the width of the ridge is at least 3.5 mm. The procedure demonstrated a safe and predictable alternative for implant placement in a knife-edge ridge, with a high survival rate of ridge expansion. The patient presented good healing at the follow-up with a little resorption that remained stable in time after crown placing.
