Extreme intrusive force affects the expression of c-Fos and matrix metallopeptidase 9 in human dental pulp tissues.

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
This study aimed to investigate the expression of c-Fos and matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9) in dental pulp of patients receiving orthodontic treatment via wire appliance.Fifteen patients (30 teeth in total) were randomly assigned to five groups: t = 0, t = 1, t = 4, t = 8 and t = 12 (n = 6). The first maxillary premolars of patients in the t = 0 group were extracted without any orthodontic treatment. An intrusive force of 300 g was applied on first maxillary premolars in the other four groups via wire appliances. This force was maintained for 1 week for t = 1 group, 4 weeks for t = 4 group, 8 weeks for t = 8 group, or 12 weeks for t = 12 group, before the teeth were extracted.The expression of c-Fos and MMP-9 in the pulps of each group was analyzed by immunohistochemical staining and real-time PCR. The relationship in the protein expression between c-Fos and MMP-9 in the dental pulp was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Intrusive force of 300 g increased the expression of both c-Fos and MMP-9 in the dental pulp. The protein expression of MMP-9 in the dental pulp was significantly correlated with the expression of c-Fos (P < .001).Extreme intrusive force upregulates c-Fos and MMP-9 expression in the dental pulp. Moreover, protein expression of c-Fos and MMP-9 is significantly correlated under intrusive force.
