Role of hyaluronic acid in the treatment of peri-implant diseases: results of a meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Peri-implantitis is an infectious-inflammatory disease that affects the tissues surrounding implants and is one of the main causes of implant failure. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural polymer with multiple biomedical and cosmetic applications. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate its efficacy in the treatment of peri-implant disease. Methods: In accordance with PRISMA, the question was established: is HA treatment effective as a sole or adjunctive therapy for the treatment of peri-implantitis? PubMed/Medline, Embase, Cochrane Central, Dentistry & Oral Sciences Source and Web of Science were searched until December 2024. Inclusion criteria were interventional studies (RCTs and case series), according to the PICOs strategy in subjects with peri-implant pathology (participants), treated with HA (intervention) compared to conventionally treated or untreated patients (control) and assessing response to treatment (outcomes). Results: Thirty-two studies were obtained and four were selected. Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool and methodological quality using the Joanna Briggs Institute tool. Meta-analysis of parameters was performed for pooled studies and for subgroups. The overall effect was in favour of the experimental group. Conclusions: The use of HA as background or adjunctive therapy in peri-implantitis may be effective, although well-designed RCTs are warranted to validate the efficacy of the product.
