Three-dimensional ultrastructural analysis of the interface between an implanted demineralised dentin matrix and the surrounding newly formed bone.

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
Previous investigators have reported that transplanted demineralised dentin matrix (DDM) influences bone formation in vivo. However, the specific mechanism of how dentinal tubules contribute to bone formation has not been determined with regard to DDM transplantation therapy. In this study, we ultrastructurally investigated how DDM contacted the surrounding newly formed bone using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) three-dimensional reconstruction method that is based on focused ion beam slicing and SEM (FIB/SEM). A pulverised and processed DDM derived from human teeth was implanted into rat calvarial bone defects, and a series of X-ray computed tomographic images were obtained over 12 weeks. Implants with surrounding new bone were removed and histologically examined using FIB/SEM. After obtaining objective block-face images, the target boundary face was reconstructed three-dimensionally. The osteocytes of the new bone tissue surrounding the DDM formed a network connected by their cellular processes and formed bone tissue. It is also interesting that the cellular processes of the osteocytes extended into the dentinal tubules, and that bone tissue with canaliculi had formed and filled the DDM surface.
