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: Excess cement is one of the most prevalent problems with cement-retained implant-supported prostheses. The excess cement may be considered an important source of inflammation during implant application. Optimizing the design procedure for reducing excess cement is necessary for successful and safe implant applications. Methods: This study assessed the effect of two confounding factors, i.e., emergence profile and space gap size, on the level of excess cement. Three types of emergence profiles (concave, convex, and straight) and three different gap sizes (30, 60, and 90 µm) were considered for implant design, and the level of excess cement was measured for each design. Results: Statistical analyses using one-way ANOVA followed by post hoc Conclusion: The results emphasized that a straight profile with a smaller gap size should be considered to reduce the excess cement. However, due to the small sample size of the study, further analyses with different types of materials, angles of deformation, and gap sizes are required to reveal the exact relationship between excess cement and the design specifications.
