Evaluation of Mandibular Fixation Techniques Using Monocortical Plates After Mandibular Setback Surgery.

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
This study aimed to evaluate mandibular fixation techniques using monocortical plates following sagittal split ramus osteotomy in skeletal Class III patients. Ninety-three patients were categorized into three groups based on fixation methods: four-hole miniplate with one proximal and two distal screws (Group 1); four-hole miniplate with four screws (Group 2); sliding plate with two proximal and one distal screws (Group 3). Cone-beam computed tomography scans were obtained at three time points: immediately postoperative (T1), 6 months (T2), and 12 months (T3). The yaw, roll, and pitch rotations of the proximal segment, as well as horizontal and vertical changes of the pogonion, were evaluated. Group 1 exhibited significantly greater counterclockwise rotation of the proximal segments at T2 (
