Is oral and maxillofacial surgery lagging behind other specialties on X?
Article in Oral and maxillofacial surgery, 2025. 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
purposeX, formerly known as Twitter, is a popular social media platform that facilitates oral and maxillofacial surgeons to disseminate a wide array of information to a global audience. The purpose of this study is to identify the top influencers in oral and maxillofacial surgery on X, characterize who they are, and relate their social media influence to academic influence.
methodsWe utilized the "BuzzSumo" Application Programming Interface to identify the most followed accounts for the topic search "oral and maxillofacial surgery." A secondary calculator from the Mention API was used to assign a numerical score of "influence" based on their algorithm. The top 100 accounts associated with the highest engagement scores were characterized by name, status as an oral and maxillofacial surgeon/organization, location, and academic h-index.
resultsWe found that 52/100 (52%) of users/organizations were oral and maxillofacial surgeons/residents. There was no significant correlation between the h-index and the X engagement score, R
conclusionOur results indicate there is a demonstrated need for the creation of more educational content from high-ranking academic sources.
