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
Primary implant stability arises from mechanical engagement at placement, and insertion torque is not a direct measure of osseointegration. This retrospective single-centre study included 101 MultiNeO titanium implant placements in 55 adults treated between April 2023 and January 2026. Four experienced operators placed implants subcrestally using a W&H Implantmed SI-1023, a bone-resistance-adapted drilling protocol, and a programmed target of 35 N·cm. Associations with recorded torque were assessed using a patient-clustered Gaussian generalized estimating equation adjusted for sex, age, anatomical sector, implant length and diameter, hard-tissue augmentation, and placement timing. The mean torque was 31.63 ± 5.57 N·cm; the median was 35 N·cm (Q1-Q3, 30-35). Recorded torque was 3.25 N·cm higher for implants placed in women than for those placed in men (95% CI 1.20-5.31;
