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: Robot-assisted surgery is widely used in implant dentistry; however, the specific effects of implant site and bone quality on its accuracy require further elucidation. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of implant site and bone quality on the accuracy of a single robotic-assisted implant placement method. Methods: This retrospective analysis included 83 patients who received 173 implants via a robot-assisted system. Implants were categorized by site into upper-anterior (UA), upper-posterior (UP), lower-anterior (LA), and lower-posterior (LP) regions and by bone quality into Type I-II and Type III-IV. Postoperative accuracy was assessed by comparing the planned versus actual implant positions, measuring lateral coronal deviation (LCD), vertical coronal deviation (VCD), and global coronal deviation (GCD); lateral apical deviation (LAD), vertical apical deviation (VAD), and global apical deviation (GAD); and angular deviation (AD). Results: When analyzed by implant site, the UA region demonstrated significantly larger vertical deviations (VCD and VAD) compared to the LP region (VCD: 0.99 ± 0.46 mm vs. 0.25 ± 0.53 mm, Conclusions: Both implant site and bone quality were found to influence the accuracy of the single robotic-assisted system.
