Factors Influencing the Screw Stability of Implant-Supported Single Crowns: An In Vitro Study.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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 aim is to investigate the impact of retention type, implant/abutment angulation, and the presence of sealant/antimicrobial agents on screw loosening of implant-supported restorations. Fifty dental implants along with their respective abutments and screws were allocated to five groups (n = 10). The groups were categorized based on type of crown retention (screw-/cement-retained), implant/abutment angulation (0°/20°), and type of disinfectant/sealant as follows: Cem_control (cemented/0°/none), Cem_GP (cemented/0°/gutta-percha), Cem_CHX (cemented/0°/chlorhexidine), Cem_Ang (cemented/20°/none), and Screw (screwed/0°/ none). Abutment screws were tightened (20 Ncm), and CAD/CAM zirconia crowns were fabricated. Glass ionomer cement was used for crown cementation in the cemented groups. Samples were subjected to dynamic loading in a chewing simulator (1,200,000 cycles/98 N). After loading, the reverse torque values (RTVs) of the abutment screws were determined (Ncm) using an electronic screwdriver, and the reverse torque difference (RTD) was subsequently calculated. The lowest RTD was reported in group Cem_GP (-2.22 ± 1.03), whereas the highest RTD was seen in group Screw (-4.65 ± 1.79). Group Screw showed a statistically significant difference from all other groups (
