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

Background/Purpose: This study examined the effect of insertion load on implant primary stability by evaluating the insertion torque and insertion time in various implant designs. Materials and methods: Four implant designs were tested, including one cylindrical implant standard (S), two hybrid implants tapered effect (TE) and bone level (BL), and one conical implant bone level tapered (BLT). Polyurethane bone models of the maxillary posterior region were used. Insertion torque value (ITV) and insertion time, defined as the duration from implant placement initiation to platform alignment, were recorded under two load conditions, the minimum load and a load of 5.0 newton (N). A torque meter was used to capture torque-time curves, and the mean and standard deviation of ITV were calculated. Data were analyzed using a paired t-test ( Results: The minimum insertion load varied by design: implant S required 2.5 N, implants TE and BL each required 2.0 N, and implant BLT required 1.0 N. At minimum load, insertion torque was 8.68 N cm for implant S, 6.64 N cm for implant TE, 12.29 N cm for implant BL, and 29.52 N cm for implant BLT. Under 5.0 N, the values were 8.12, 7.82, 14.89, and 30.53 N cm, respectively. Insertion time decreased by up to 12.52 % from 1.0 N to 5.0 N, with significant differences in implant BLT. Conclusion: Hybrid implants are more sensitive to load variations. Optimizing the insertion load based on implant design can enhance clinical outcomes. The insertion load is a critical but often overlooked factor in primary implant stability.
