Assessment of Jaw Bone Density Using Cone-Beam CT in Patients with Osteoporosis: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Introduction: Osteoporosis is a systemic condition characterized by reduced bone mineral density (BMD), leading to increased fracture risk. Assessing jaw bone density is vital for early detection and treatment planning, especially in dental and maxillofacial contexts. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has emerged as an essential tool for evaluating bone quality in osteoporotic patients. Methods: This cross-sectional study assessed jaw bone density in osteoporotic patients using CBCT. A total of 100 patients, aged 45-75, were included. BMD was calculated using CBCT-derived Hounsfield Units (HU), and results were correlated with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) data. Parameters included mandibular cortical width, trabecular bone structure, and radiomorphometric indices. Results: CBCT revealed a significant correlation between HU values and DXA scores ( Conclusion: CBCT offers a reliable method for assessing jaw bone density in osteoporotic patients. Its ability to detect low bone density could enhance early diagnosis and improve clinical outcomes.
