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: This case report aimed to evaluate the clinical performance of Mucoderm and Fibro-Gide collagen matrices (CMs) as alternatives to connective tissue graft (CTG) in the treatment of multiple gingival recessions (GRs). Methods: A 37-year-old man, systemically healthy and a nonsmoker patient, with multiple bilateral GR (recession type 1 class [RT1] or Miller Class I) involving teeth 12-16 and 22-26 was surgically treated. Envelope type of coronally advanced flap (CAF) was used in teeth 14-16 and 23-26 associated with Fibro-Gide matrix on the right side and Mucoderm matrix on the left side. Results: Complete root coverage was observed in all GR after 60 days of postoperative, except for tooth 22. In the Fibro-Gide matrix-treated side, a greater increase in keratinized tissue (KT) volume was visually observed after 60 days. However, an apical displacement of approximately 0.50 mm of the marginal gingiva was observed in teeth 14, 15, 24-26 with 12 months, showing stability of the results after 4 years of follow-up. Moreover, no differences regarding KT volume and gingival color/texture were visually observed between both matrices after 5 years. Conclusion: The Mucoderm and Fibro-Gide CMs demonstrated adequate clinical performance for GR coverage in this case report.
