Dimensional Changes After Different Alveolar Ridge Preservation Techniques for Posterior Region: A Randomised Controlled Clinical Trial.
Trial report in Journal of clinical periodontology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.

Abstract
aimAlveolar ridge preservation (ARP) after tooth extraction aims to maintain ridge dimensions for future implant placement. However, limited evidence is available for posterior sites. We evaluated the dimensional changes in posterior extraction sockets using four approaches: modified free gingival graft (MFGG); MFGG with xenograft (MFGG + XG); guided bone regeneration with titanium membrane and xenograft (TM + XG); and unassisted socket healing (USH). MATERIALS AND
methodsPatients requiring posterior tooth extraction were randomly assigned to one of four groups (n = 22/group). Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was performed immediately after operation and at 6 months to assess vertical and horizontal alveolar ridge changes and implant-related outcomes.
resultsSignificant dimensional changes occurred in all groups (p < 0.05). The TM + XG and MFGG + XG groups showed better preservation of vertical ridge dimensions than the USH and MFGG groups (p < 0.05). Horizontal reductions were significant in all groups (p < 0.05). USH presented the highest sinus floor elevation rate (67% of maxillary cases) and the most frequent use of short implants (< 8.5 mm; 71%). Postoperative pain was significantly greater in the MFGG groups compared to the USH group (p < 0.05).
conclusionBone grafting with MFGG or a titanium membrane enhanced ridge preservation and reduced the need for additional surgery compared to USH.
