Accuracy of Robotic Computer-Assisted Implant Surgery Combined With Transcrestal Sinus Floor Elevation for Single-Tooth Implants: A Retrospective Case Series.
Article in Journal of clinical periodontology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimTo evaluate the accuracy and safety of robotic computer-assisted implant surgery (r-CAIS) for transcrestal sinus floor elevation (TSFE) in single-tooth implant placement. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn this retrospective case series, we assessed the positional accuracy of r-CAIS combined with TSFE in the posterior maxilla. Preoperative and postoperative cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were used to determine implant positioning accuracy. Subgroup analyses evaluated the effects of various factors on accuracy. Additionally, complications were recorded and evaluated.
resultsA total of 40 patients and 40 implants were included. Only one case (Case XIX) exhibited a Schneiderian membrane perforation, resulting in a perforation rate of 2.5% (1/40). The mean global coronal and apical deviations were 0.50 ± 0.22 mm and 0.54 ± 0.21 mm, respectively, with an angular deviation of 1.25° ± 0.61°. A linear mixed model (LMM) analysis revealed no statistically significant differences between subgroups (implant position, side of arch, bone quality, implant type, implant size and registration method) and implant deviations (p > 0.05).
conclusionsr-CAIS showed excellent accuracy and safety for TSFE in single-tooth implant placement. This study suggests r-CAIS can achieve favourable clinical outcomes, although further clinical evidence is needed to confirm its broader efficacy.
