Morphological evaluation of incisive canal between dentate and maxillary central incisor loss subjects in a Vietnamese population using cone beam computed tomography: a retrospective cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in dental medicine, 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
Accurate assessment of the incisive canal (IC) is crucial for planning dental implant procedures in the aesthetic anterior maxilla, yet population-specific data on its morphology, particularly following maxillary central incisor loss (MCIL), remains limited. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the three-dimensional morphology of the IC and the buccal alveolar bone plate (BABP) between dentate subjects and those with MCIL in a Vietnamese population using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study analyzed 138 CBCT scans, divided into a Dentate group ( Results: Gender-based analysis revealed significant sexual dimorphism, with males exhibiting larger IC diameters and greater BABP widths compared to females ( Conclusion: The loss of maxillary central incisors is associated with significant horizontal resorption of the BABP but does not significantly alter the morphology or dimensions of the incisive canal.
