Effect of Phantom Containing Implants Angulation on the Amount of Metal Artifacts Around the Implants in CBCT Images.
Article in International journal of dentistry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objective: Artifacts from dental implants impact the clarity of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans, posing challenges to radiographic detection in adjacent areas. The aim of this in vitro study is to examine the effect of angling a phantom incorporating implant fixtures on the amount of metal artifacts in CBCT scans. Materials and Methods: Three titanium fixtures, each with a diameter of 4.2 mm and a height of 12 mm were positioned within a bone block made of bovine mandibular bone. The specimen was placed on a surveyor table. The device was employed to regulate the rotation of the phantom along anterior-posterior ( Results: Higher ΔGV was seen as the angle increased in the alpha plane, while in the beta plane, the highest ΔGV occurred at 15°. At the apical level, mean ΔGV in the alpha plane (0.036) was higher than in the beta plane (0.007), whereas at the coronal level it was higher in the beta plane (0.186 vs. 0.087). Corresponding Conclusion: Altering the implant placement angle and rotation plane did not significantly impact the quantity of metal artifacts in CBCT images.
