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

Occlusal stresses on the tooth and implant are critical in determining their prognosis. When the abutment and implant collar have different diameters, the occlusal stresses are transmitted to the implant's central axis, reducing their impact on the tissue surrounding it.The objectives of this study was to use finite element analysis (FEA) to study the effect of occlusal pressures on the bone surrounding natural teeth and implants fitted with platform-matched and platform-switched abutments. Three models were developed: Model 1 representing a normal tooth, Model 2 represents an implant with a platform-matched abutment, and Model 3 represents an implant with a platform-switched abutment. Each model received a 100 N perpendicular concentrated load, and the resulting Von Mises stress distribution was evaluated. The results showed that occlusal stresses on implants were much higher than those on natural teeth, with platform-matched implants having the greatest stress values. Platform-switched implants transmitted less stress to the peri-implant bone than platform-matched implants, indicating that platform switching decreases occlusal pressures while preserving peri-implant bone levels. The study indicated that platform-switched abutments may extend the life of osseointegrated implants by reducing bone stress, while simultaneously emphasizing the protective role of the periodontal ligament in natural teeth.
