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

objectiveTo evaluate the effects of maxillary sinus augmentation (MSA) using deproteinized bovine bone material (DBBM) combined with or without platelet-rich fibrin obtained by horizontal centrifugation (H-PRF) after a short healing period of 4 months. MATERIALS AND

methodsThirteen patients underwent bilateral two-stage MSA using a split-mouth model. Each side was randomly assigned to receive DBBM alone (control group) or DBBM + H-PRF (test group). Bone tissue samples were harvested 4 months after implant placement and evaluated using microcomputed tomography (micro-CT), as well as histological and histomorphometric analyses. Data were statistically analyzed using paired t-tests (Wilcoxon signed-rank test; p < 0.05).

resultsHistomorphometric analysis demonstrated higher amounts (p < 0.05) of newly formed bone in the DBBM + H-PRF group compared to the control group (51.33% ± 6.17% versus 45.68% ± 6.65%, respectively). Micro-CT also revealed significantly higher bone volume (30.38% ± 11.24% and 21.38% ± 9.83%, respectively) and connectivity density (4485 ± 1469 and 2562 ± 1271, respectively) in the DBBM + H-PRF group than in the DBBM-alone group (p < 0.05).

conclusionsCompared with DBBM alone, maxillary sinuses augmented with H-PRF combined with DBBM exhibited improved qualitative and quantitative new bone formation after 4 months of healing. However, the effects on the long-term survival and early stability of dental implants remain unknown and warrant further investigation with long-term follow-up.
