Effectiveness of a new dental implant bioactive surface: histological and histomorphometric comparative study in minipigs.
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesThe objective of this study was to assess, by histomorphometric analysis, the degree of bone apposition on two types of dental implant's surfaces: a novel implant that combines Al MATERIALS AND
methodsTwelve minipigs were used, placing the studied implants in the maxillae, and divided into three groups according to the time of sacrifice: 2, 4, and 8 weeks after implant placement. Histological and histomorphometric analyses were performed following standardized tissue polymerization, cutting, and staining and examined under optical and high-resolution electron microscope.
resultsFor all measurements, the novel surface presented higher levels of osseointegration as compared to the shot blasting surface. Bone to implant contact (BIC) in the maxillae for ContacTi presented values of 49.02, 83.20, and 85.58% at 2, 4, and 8 weeks, respectively, significantly higher compared to the shot blasting surface values of 39.32, 46.53, and 46.20% for the same time points. Bone area density (BAD) presented values of 26.52, 61.21, and 59.50% for ContacTi surface implants and 22.95, 36.26, and 49.50% for the shot blasted surface implants. Signs of osteoconductivity were observed in the ContacTi surfaces at 2 weeks.
conclusionsThe ContacTi surface achieved a faster growth of hard tissues around the implants, when compared to the shot blasting surface, and for all evaluated histomorphometric parameters, the values were higher at all measured time points. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: ContacTi could be a new surface improving the osseointegration in oral implantology.
