1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Alveolar bone defects can result from trauma, resection of benign or malignant tumors, congenital anomalies, or periodontitis. These defects require bone augmentation to restore normal occlusal function and improve esthetics. This case report describes a 26-year-old man referred to our hospital with a diagnosis of jaw deformity. A deficiency of alveolar bone and teeth in the maxillary anterior region, caused by childhood trauma, was confirmed. Sagittal split ramus osteotomy was performed, accompanied by bone augmentation of the maxillary anterior region using a custom-made titanium mesh and autogenous iliac particulate cancellous bone and marrow, guided by three-dimensional simulation. Dental implants were placed in the augmented region 4 months later, followed by prosthetic treatment. This case demonstrates successful esthetic and functional reconstruction of a maxillary anterior bone defect and jaw deformity using preoperative three-dimensional simulation.
