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.

Abstract
aimTo assess the clinical, radiographic and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) of 6-mm short implants supporting splinted crowns in posterior regions at 12 years following early prosthetic loading. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis prospective study enrolled 45 patients (95 implants; Ø4 × 6 mm) across three centres. Participants received 2-3 implants in posterior regions, with all prosthetically rehabilitated via screw-retained splinted crowns following a 6-week healing period. Clinical and radiographic parameters were assessed at implant placement, prosthetic loading and post-loading intervals (6/12/24/36/60/96/144 months). Biological and mechanical complications were documented at each revisit. PROs were collected at the 12-year follow-up.
resultsThirty-nine patients completed the 12-year follow-up, including three evaluated remotely. Mean marginal bone level change was -0.09 ± 0.26 mm. Seven implants failed, with four occurring before early loading and the other three after 5 years post loading. The cumulative survival rate was 92.6%. Prevalences of peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis were 37.8% and 2.7% at the implant level, corresponding to 50.0% and 5.6% at the patient level, respectively, while mechanical complication prevalence was 31.1%. Patients were highly satisfied with implant treatment at the final follow-up.
conclusionsSix-mm short implants supporting early loaded splinted crowns in posterior regions could achieve stable clinical outcomes and marginal bone levels with high satisfaction over a 12-year follow-up period.
