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

The "all-on-four" concept is a prominent solution for rehabilitating edentulous patients with fixed full-arch restorations. This study aimed to examine the stress distribution pattern, material fatigue, and restoration displacement using different framework materials under static (SL) and dynamic (DL) loading conditions. Six three-dimensional finite element analysis models of an atrophic maxilla rehabilitated via the all-on-four concept were analyzed. Models utilized three different framework materials: Cobalt-Chromium Alloy (CoCr), Zirconia (Zr), and Polyetheretherketone (PEEK). The models were subjected to three types of SL (90, 150, and 200 N) and two cases of DL (150 N) simulating mastication. DL generated higher stress intensities compared to SL. PEEK models showed the highest stress concentrations in the cortical bone (up to 70.44 MPa) and implants across SL models. The PEEK frameworks showed a risk of fatigue-related fracture of the cortical bone around terminal implants. Models utilizing PEEK frameworks exhibited significantly greater structural displacement (up to -0.681 mm horizontally) under DL compared to their rigid counterparts. CoCr and Zr provide better resistance to cyclic loading and reduced displacement, ensuring a higher safety factor. PEEK frameworks demonstrated inferior mechanical resistance under fatigue.
