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

abstractLower lip defects after oncologic resection can severely affect oral competence, speech, esthetics, and psychosocial well-being. Surgical reconstruction alone may not fully restore dynamic perioral function, requiring adjunctive prosthetic rehabilitation. A 58-year-old male with right lower alveolar squamous cell carcinoma underwent mid-segmental mandibulectomy with immediate free fibula flap reconstruction and primary implant placement, followed by radiotherapy. One year later, he presented with partial lower lip deficiency, drooling of saliva, speech difficulty, and esthetic compromise. A two-piece prosthesis was fabricated, combining an implant-retained overdenture and magnet-retained extraoral silicone lip prosthesis. Cobalt-samarium magnets ensured precise retention, while intrinsic and extrinsic pigmentation improved esthetic integration. At 3 months, the prosthesis showed satisfactory retention, stability, and color durability. Patient-reported outcomes Liverpool Oral Rehabilitation Questionnaire version 3 indicated a 47% improvement in overall score, reflecting gains in function and psychosocial well-being.
