The Utilisation, Knowledge and Opinions Regarding Static Computer-Assisted Implant Surgery (s-CAIS) Among Australian and New Zealand Dental Practitioners: A Survey.
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
Background: Increasingly, static computer-assisted implant surgeries (s-CAISs) are being promoted to dental practitioners with warranties of providing high levels of accuracy and precision in achieving the pre-planned implant position. However, there is a lack of evidence in the current literature regarding the accuracy of s-CAIS in certain clinical situations. In light of the paucity of evidence, this study aimed to identify the utilisation, knowledge and opinions regarding s-CAIS among Australian and New Zealand practitioners involved in clinical practice. Methods: Anonymous online surveys were distributed to various dental associations, tertiary organisations and implant companies. R (R Core Team, 2021) and RStudio (RStudio Team, 2020) software were utilised for logistic regression analyses. Results: A total of 304 responses were received. Of the valid responses ( Conclusion: This survey identifies a need for continuing education regarding implant treatment planning and the factors that may influence the accuracy of s-CAIS, for clinicians who currently utilise or intend to utilise the technology in the future.
