Impact of different implant abutment materials on peri-implant soft tissues.
Article in Bioinformation, 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
Beyond successful osseointegration, maintaining healthy peri-implant soft tissues is essential for the long-term success of dental implants. The choice of abutment material profoundly influences tissue response, plaque accumulation, esthetics and inflammation around implant sites. Therefore, it is of interest to assess the effect of titanium, zirconia and hybrid abutments on peri-implant soft tissue health in 100 patients rehabilitated with implant-supported prostheses. Parameters evaluated included plaque index, gingival index, probing depth, bleeding on probing and mucosal thickness over defined follow-up periods. Zirconia abutments showed superior soft tissue color match and lower bleeding tendency, hybrid abutments produced intermediate results and titanium abutments demonstrated slightly higher plaque retention but acceptable tissue compatibility. Thus, we show that ceramic-based abutments may enhance soft tissue harmony and reduce peri-implant inflammatory responses, particularly in esthetic zones.
