The assessment of new bone formation induced by unfocused extracorporeal shock wave therapy applied on pre-surgical phase of distraction osteogenesis.
Article in European oral research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
purposeThis study aims to evaluate the effects of extracorporeal shock wave therapy applied before and/or immediately after the osteotomy on the maturation during the consolidation phase. MATERIALS AND
methods21 female New Zealand rabbits were used in the study. Subjects were divided randomly into three groups: Control (Distraction without ESWT), A (Distraction +ESWT After Osteotomy), AB (Distraction+ESWT After and Before Osteotomy). ESWT (500 pulses, 5 Hz, 0.19 mJ/mm2 energy flux density) was applied to group A and group AB after 5, 12 and 19 days after osteotomy and group AB only on days 7,14 and 21 before osteotomy. On the 28th day of the consolidation period, all subjects were sacrificed. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) was used to determine bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC), and stereological methods were used to determine the new bone, connective tissue and neovascularization volumes.
resultsAs a result of DEXA examinations made on the 1st and 4th week of consolidation, there was no significant difference between groups regarding BMD and BMC values. According to the results of stereological examination, when the connective tissue and new bone tissue were evaluated, higher values were observed in AB when compared to A, and in AB and A compared to the control group, but the differences are not statistically significant. There was no difference between the groups in terms of neovascularization.
conclusionESWT in these parameters was not positively effective in bone maturation during consolidation when applied before osteotomy or both before and after osteotomy.
