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

aimTo explore the treatment outcome of surgical peri-implantitis protocols in a university-based setting. MATERIALS AND

methodsFour-hundred and six implants in 223 patients were surgically treated by four trained surgeons using open-flap debridement (OFD, 37 implants), implantoplasty (Impl, 39 implants), reconstructive surgery (Rec, 241 implants) or a combined approach (Comb, 89 implants). Treatment success after 1 year (maximum probing depth (max PD) ≤ 5 mm, bleeding on probing (BOP) at ≤ 1 site and no suppuration) was the primary outcome. Logistic regression was used to explore associations between patient-/implant-related factors, treatment modalities and treatment success, implant loss and surgical retreatment.

resultsTreatment was successful in 54.7% of implants after 1 year: OFD 62.5%, Impl 58.3%, Rec 55.4%, Comb 48.3%, with no significant group differences. Over a mean follow-up of 30.80 ± 19.62 months, 40 implants (9.9%) were lost and 38 (9.4%) required surgical retreatment. In exploratory multivariable analyses, systemic antibiotic use (pre-operative: OR = 3.54, p = 0.04; pre- and post-operative: OR = 4.49, p = 0.02) and surgeon experience (OR = 0.12, p = 0.003) showed associations with treatment success. Molar site (OR = 3.21, p = 0.03), antibiotic (pre- and post-operative: OR = 3.13, p = 0.02) and baseline suppuration (OR = 4.51, p = 0.002) were associated with implant loss. Surgical retreatment was associated with overdenture (OR = 3.59, p = 0.003) and max PD at baseline (OR = 1.30, p = 0.001).

conclusionsSurgical peri-implantitis outcome was associated with systemic antibiotic, surgeon, molar site, overdenture, baseline suppuration and PD.
