1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivesNicotine is considered an etiologic factor for chronic inflammatory phenomena within the periodontal ligament that may result in loss of periodontal attachment. Considering that smokers account for 26% of adult and 12% of adolescent patients in orthodontic practice, we performed in vivo and in vitro studies as to whether orthodontic forces may add to the nicotine-induced loss of periodontal bone.

methodsFourteen male rats (Fischer 344 inbred) were used. Seven of these served as controls, while the other seven received daily subcutaneous injections of 1.89 mg L-nicotine per kg body weight. Both groups were exposed to orthodontic mesialization of the first two upper left molars using a NiTi closed-coil spring, the contralateral side serving as control. Periodontal bone loss was assessed by cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Human periodontal fibroblasts were stressed by compression (2 g/cm(2)) and/or nicotine (3/5/7.5 µmol), and the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), interleukin-6 (IL-6), osteoprotegerin (OPG), and receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) was determined at the transcriptional level by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and at the translational level by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In addition, differentiation of co-cultured murine RAW264.7 cells to osteoclast-like cells was quantified by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining.

resultsOrthodontic force application in vivo led to a significant increase in nicotine-induced periodontal bone loss, and cell compression in vitro to increased COX-2, PGE2, IL-6, and RANKL expression, reduced OPG expression, and enhanced differentiation of RAW264.7 cells to osteoclast-like cells compared to nicotine alone.

conclusionAdditional loss of periodontal bone must be expected during orthodontic treatment of smokers. Clinicians should inform their patients of this increased risk and refrain from performing tooth movements before cessation of smoking.
