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

Background: The long-term success of dental implants is often compromised in patients with a history of periodontitis. This study aimed to identify the specific pre-implant clinical, demographic, and systemic risk factors associated with implant failure in a large cohort of periodontally susceptible patients who had received prior non-surgical therapy. Material and Methods: This retrospective cohort study utilized electronic health records from the multi-center BigMouth network (2011-2022). A final cohort of 434 patients with a history of periodontitis was analyzed at the patient level. Patients were stratified into an implant failure group ( Results: The analysis revealed that the severity of pre-existing periodontal disease was the primary predictor of failure. The failure group had a significantly higher pre-implant Mean Probing Depth (3.34 mm vs. 3.07 mm, Conclusions: The severity of residual periodontal disease, specifically elevated pre-implant probing depths, is the most significant and powerful predictor of dental implant failure in patients with a history of non-surgically managed periodontitis. Achieving periodontal stability before surgery is paramount for long-term implant success in this high-risk population.
