First-time use of deer antler-derived xenografts for management of severe peri-implantitis with titanium mesh: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 2026. 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
backgroundIncreasing dental implant use correlates with rising biological complications. For severe peri-implantitis with significant bone loss, choosing the right sustaining treatment is challenging, as nonsurgical methods often fail. This case details a novel management approach for a male patient with serious peri-implantitis, specifically highlighting the initial use of deer antler xenografts in such a procedure. CASE PRESENTATION: A 42-year-old Iranian male presented with significant challenges, including 8 mm of vertical bone loss and a probing depth of 12 mm around a bone-level Interlock implant (4*11 mm). The novel treatment approach incorporated deer antler xenografts, a titanium mesh to maintain space, and a collagen membrane to encourage guided bone regeneration. Follow-up evaluations, both 2D and 3D, four months postsurgery, revealed complete bone regeneration up to the rough neck of the implant. Furthermore, 24 months of follow-up after the delivery of the crown showed stable results.
conclusionThis case illustrates the promising potential of deer antler-derived xenografts in addressing severe peri-implantitis. It emphasizes the necessity for further clinical trials to validate these observations and enhance treatment protocols.
