Assessment of craniofacial implants in restoring facial function and aesthetics.
Article in Bioinformation, 2025. 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
The effectiveness of craniofacial implants in restoring facial function and aesthetics in patients with congenital anomalies, trauma, tumors, or other craniofacial deformities is of interest. Fifty patients aged 18 and above who had received craniofacial implants were assessed over 12 months at three intervals: pre-surgery, 6 months post-surgery and 12 months post-surgery. Clinical evaluations, standardized functional and aesthetic scales and patient-reported outcomes were used to measure implant success. Results showed significant improvements in facial and oral functions, aesthetic outcomes, patient satisfaction and pain reduction. Although minor complications such as implant failure and infection were observed, the overall success rate was high. Thus, the role of craniofacial implants in improving patients' quality of life is shown, while emphasizing the need for long-term research to refine rehabilitation techniques.
