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
Osseodensification (OD) has emerged as a favorable osteotomy preparation technique that preserves and compacts autogenous bone along the osteotomy walls during site preparation, enhancing primary stability and implant osseointegration. While OD has demonstrated promising results in low-density trabecular bone, especially when used in conjunction with acid-etched (AE) implant surfaces, its efficacy in high-density cortical bone remains unclear-particularly in the context of varying implant surface characteristics. In this study, Grade V titanium alloy implants (Ti-6Al-4V, 4 mm × 10 mm) with deep threads, designated bone chambers and either as-machined (Mach) or AE surfaces were placed in 3.8 mm diameter osteotomies in the submandibular region of 16 adult sheep using either OD or conventional (Reg) drilling protocols. Insertion torque values (N·cm) were measured at the time of implant placement to evaluate primary stability. Mandibles were harvested at 3-, 6-, 12-, or 24-weeks post-implantation (
