In-vitro analysis of stress dynamics in polyamide and metal acrylic distal extension removable partial dentures.
Article in BMC oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThis study aimed to determine and compare the stresses transmitted by metal acrylic and polyamide removable partial dentures (RPDs) on free-end saddle areas.
methodsTwenty metal acrylic and polyamide removable partial dentures were made. The stresses transmitted on the free end saddle area were determined and compared by using the strain gauge resistance method, in which sensors were installed in the epoxy resin cast. The load was applied on removable partial dentures with the underlying cast through the universal testing machine. Data was collected through the connected strain meter and computer. The analysis was done using ANSYS version 15, and the results were analyzed.
resultsThe polyamide distal extension removable partial dentures transmit higher but even stresses on the free end saddle area compared to metal acrylic distal extension RPDs. The forces transmitted by polyamide distal extension base RPDs distribute an even load on the ridge, whereas metal acrylic distal extension base RPDs distribute an uneven load on the ridge. P value equal to and < 0.05 was considered significant, and our results showed insignificant statistical differences.
conclusionStress distribution in polyamide distal extension removable partial dentures is even compared to metal acrylic distal extension removable partial dentures. Even force distribution is less damaging to the bone and surrounding tissues.
