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

Metal artifacts from temporomandibular joint prosthetic components significantly compromise cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) image quality and limit postoperative assessment. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the effectiveness of metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithms in improving CBCT image quality using standardized anthropomorphic skull phantoms with five commercially available TMJ prosthetic systems. CBCT scans were acquired with three imaging systems with and without MAR activation, followed by quantitative analysis of artifact index, signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio, along with qualitative assessment by four calibrated oral radiologists. MAR algorithms significantly reduced artifact indices by 34.7-58.2% and improved diagnostic acceptability scores (3.6 ± 0.8 vs 2.1 ± 0.7; p < 0.001), with titanium components generating fewer artifacts than cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloys. Despite substantial improvement, residual artifacts persisted near cobalt-chromium-molybdenum components, indicating the need for further optimization of MAR algorithms and CBCT acquisition protocols.
