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: This study was designed to compare the effect of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and concentrated growth factor (CGF) on the immediate implants placed in previously infected sites. Methods: A total of 210 patients were included in this randomized clinical trial. The remaining tooth was extracted, and the periapical lesion was removed. Then, PRF and CGF were placed in the socket in the PRF and CGF groups, respectively. No intervention was performed in the control group. The implant was inserted and sutured. Postoperative pain was measured using VAS. Plaque index (PI), bleeding on probing (BOP), buccal and proximal gingival esthetic index (GEI-B and GEI-P), crestal bone level, periapical lesion size, and Implant Health Scale (IHS) were evaluated. Data were analyzed with SPSS 18 using one-way ANOVA, Tukey, and repeated measures test at 0.05 significance level. Results: The mean BOP and pain in each period were significantly higher in the control group than in the PRF and CGF groups and in the PRF group than in the CGF group ( Conclusion: PRF and CGF guaranteed the successful osseointegration of immediate implants in previously infected sites. CGF and PRF positively affected the soft tissue and hard tissue around the immediate implants. CGF had more promising effects than PRF.
