Fracture resistance and failure modes of endodontically-treated permanent teeth restored with Ribbond posts vs other post systems: a systematic review and meta-analysis of in vitro studies.
Article in Restorative dentistry & endodontics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Objectives: This systematic review aimed to investigate the fracture resistance and mode of failure of endodontically-treated permanent teeth restored with Ribbond posts (Ribbond, Inc.) compared with endodontically-treated permanent teeth restored with other post systems. Methods: A comprehensive, systematic literature search was carried out using several electronic databases: MEDLINE/PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Library. Two separate researchers were appointed to identify the studies meeting the eligibility criteria, and to perform the data extraction, risk of bias, and quality assessment. Results: Twelve studies were included in the quantitative analysis. Meta-analysis was performed with 11 of the 12 included articles. The meta-analysis showed that Ribbond posts have a fracture strength less than prefabricated metal posts, cast metal posts, and prefabricated fiber posts and greater than custom e-glass fiber posts. Mode of failure analysis revealed that Ribbond posts have the most favorable non-catastrophic fractures. Conclusions: Although Ribbond posts have lower fracture resistance, their favorable mode of failure makes them potentially the most biomimetic post system.
