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.

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

backgroundImmediate implant placement in the esthetic zone, particularly in Class II extraction sockets with partial facial bone loss, presents challenges in achieving soft and hard tissue stability. Customized computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) titanium abutments may offer advantages over prefabricated stock abutments. This study compared the clinical, radiographic, and patient-reported outcomes of customized CAD/CAM titanium abutments versus stock Laser-Lok stock abutments. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn a single-center, double-blind randomized clinical trial, 48 patients received immediate maxillary anterior implants restored with either customized CAD/CAM titanium abutments (

resultsAt 12 months, the customized abutment group showed significantly shallower PD (mean difference: -0.54 mm; 95% CI: -0.72 to -0.35;

conclusionsAt 1-year follow-up, customized CAD/CAM titanium abutments demonstrated improved peri-implant soft tissue parameters, esthetics, and patient satisfaction compared to stock abutments. While these findings support their use in esthetically demanding immediate implant cases, the short-term duration and single-center design warrant further long-term multicenter studies to confirm durability.
