| Aim | To estimate the prevalence of spin and completeness of reporting of systematic reviews with metanalysis (SRMAs) in implant dentistry. |
| Level of Investigation | Descriptive |
| Summary of Findings | From 45 included systematic reviews of implant dentistry on survival, success, or failure rates in humans indexed across three databases from inception to May 2021. There was a low presence of spin in the abstracts as assessed with the SPIN checklist (Yavchitz et al 2016) and full text, except for adverse events, in which 51.1% (in the abstract) failed to mention any adverse event for summarized interventions. In the abstracts there was an incomplete report for most items using the PRISMA-A checklist. In the full text of the systematic reviews, 33.3% did not report a registered protocol. |
