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

backgroundThe aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of different implant materials and arrangements within the field of view (FOV) and exomass on the diagnostic accuracy and image quality of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) for the detection of peri-implant buccal bone defects of various sizes.

methodsA total of 120 CBCT scans with three different implant materials with identical diameter (titanium [Ti], titanium-zirconium [TiZr], and zirconium dioxide [ZrO

resultsCBCT imaging demonstrated high overall diagnostic accuracy for detecting surgically created peri-implant bone defects when implants were positioned within FOV and the exomass. Nevertheless, defect size (p < 0.001) and implant material (p = 0.019) did affect the diagnostic accuracy significantly. Smaller bone defects (79.4%) were associated with a reduced diagnostic accuracy compared with larger defects (99.1%) and non-defect sites (95.3%). ZrO

conclusionsCBCT reliably detects peri-implant bone defects, irrespective of the implant material or the presence in the exomass. While ZrO PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY: This study explored how well cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), a 3D dental imaging technique, can detect bone loss around dental implants. The authors tested three commonly used implant materials-titanium (Ti), titanium-zirconium (TiZr), and zirconium dioxide (ZrO
