Effect of Pre-Orthodontic CGF-Assisted GTR for Class II Furcation Lesions After Orthodontic Treatment: 5-Year Observation.
Article in International dental journal, 2026. 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
aimsThe purpose of this case series is to discuss the effect of orthodontic treatment (OT) on the regenerative surgery of furcation defects. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis was a consecutive case series with a 5-year follow-up. Eight patients of stage III periodontitis with 10 mandibular Class II buccal furcation defects were included. The furcation defects were treated by guided tissue regeneration combined with bone graft and concentrated growth factors. OT was started at 1-year post-surgery. Clinical examination and CBCT were performed at baseline, 12 months post-surgery, and 5 years post-surgery.
resultsThe mean clinical attachment loss and probing depth improved from baseline to different time points post-surgery. And there were no significant changes at subsequent time points post-surgery (P > .05). A statistically significant reduction in the mean horizontal, vertical bone loss, and volume of furcation defects from baseline to different time points post-surgery has been shown (P < .001). No statistically significant difference was observed between 1-year and 5 years post-surgery (P > .05).
conclusionsIn summary, the combined regenerative therapy showed good results in the treatment of furcation defects. Moreover, the combined regenerative therapy was shown to be maintained throughout and following orthodontic treatment.
