Evaluation of Patients Perspectives on Dental Implants and Bone Graft Surgery.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 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
Aim: To evaluate patient's perspective on dental implants and bone grafts. Materials and Methods: A series of 50 consecutive patients looking for implant treatment were included in the city. Patients who had past history of implant surgery and also local or systemic contraindications to the same were excluded. The study included 21 men and 29 women, aged 18-60 years. Participants were categorized by profession, including self-employed individuals, freelancers, executives, students, civil servants, white collar workers and retirees. Data analysis was done using SSPS software. Results: The survey revealed high patient expectations for dental implants, with 54% accepting bone grafts-72% preferring retromolar and 32% chin harvesting-while 53% opted for synthetic substitutes and 72% supported guided surgery at extra cost. Additionally, many held misconceptions: 54% believed fixed dentures need implants, 42% thought grafting was essential, 51% deemed implants unsuitable for themselves, and 49% considered a CT scan mandatory. Conclusion: Patients have high expectations for implant longevity and success but show varying acceptance of treatment procedures.
