Predictive Models for Stylohyoid Complex Elongation: A Multivariate Statistical Analysis with Evidence-Based Diagnostic Criteria.
Article in Journal of clinical and experimental dentistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Stylohyoid complex elongation represents significant anatomical variations with clinical implications, yet comprehensive morphometric analyses using advanced statistical modeling remain limited in establishing evidence-based diagnostic criteria. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed 100 digital panoramic radiographs from a Colombian population. Advanced statistical methods included multivariate regression analysis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, cluster analysis, and factor analysis. Morphometric measurements were validated using intraclass correlation coefficients and Bland-Altman analysis. Results: Mean styloid process length was 36.79±10.15 mm. A 97% prevalence of elongation >25mm was observed. Multivariate logistic regression identified age (β=0.31, Conclusions: This study establishes evidence-based diagnostic criteria for stylohyoid complex evaluation through advanced statistical modeling. The 32.5 mm cutoff demonstrates superior performance compared to traditional values, while predictive models provide reliable risk assessment capabilities for precision medicine applications.
