Horizontal Ridge Augmentation With Symphyseal Autograft: Clinical and Radiographic Analysis.
Article in Cureus, 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
Horizontal ridge augmentation with symphyseal autograft is a reliable method of treating alveolar ridge deficiencies in the anterior mandible. Autogenous bone grafts from intraoral donor sites have been regarded as the gold standard for reconstructing jaws. The symphysis is an easily available source of corticocancellous bone with good osteogenic, osteoinductive, and osteoconductive characteristics. This case report illustrates the horizontal ridge augmentation with symphyseal block grafts successfully before implant placement. Fixation screws were used to fix harvested blocks to the ridged defect, along with particulate bone grafts and barrier membranes to provide stability and prevent resorption. This technique provided outstanding horizontal bone gain with a good foundation for placing the implant in otherwise compromised locations. Case selection, accurate surgical technique, and respect for biologic principles are paramount to achieving the best results. On balance, symphyseal autografts are still a solid choice for horizontal ridge augmentation in implant dentistry.
