Abstract: Three electronic searches were conducted to obtain articles in English limited to clinical human studies published prior to March 2015. The outcome measure was the success of MIs. Patient factors included age, gender, and jaw; the MI factors included length and diameter. A metaanalysis was then performed based on 17 individual studies. The quality of each study was assessed for nonrandomized studies and quantified using the NewcastleOttawa Scale. The outcome of the metaanalysis was a combined OR. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses based on the study design, study quality, and sample size of MI were performed.
