Effect of Bone Powder/Mesenchymal Stem Cell/BMP2/Fibrin Glue on Osteogenesis in a Mastoid Obliteration Model.

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
BACKGROUND/
aimThis study aimed to prospectively compare the osteogenesis of bone powder (BP) substances with and without mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and evaluate the synergistic effect of topically applied recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP2) on MSC-loaded BP using fibrin glue in a mastoid obliteration model. MATERIALS AND
methodsTo determine the expression of osteocyte-specific genes, total RNA was isolated from three MSC groups: Untreated MSCs, MSCs cultured with BP, and MSCs cultured with BP and BMP2. Real-time polymerase chain reaction was carried out with specific primers of osteogenesis-related genes runt-related transcription factor 2, osteocalcin, osteoprotegerin, osterix, alkaline phosphatase, transforming growth factor beta, and type I collagen. Live/dead staining was also performed. To observe the adhesion of MSCs to the BP, MSCs were treated with BP for 2 days and the surface was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Under general anesthesia, mastoid obliteration was performed in rats using three groups: treated with BP alone, BP/MSCs, and BP/MSC/BMP2. Before decapitation at 8 weeks post operation, in vivo micro computed tomography (micro CT) was performed. The bullae were dissected, fixed, and decalcified. followed by dehydration, paraffin embedding, and staining by hematoxylin and eosin and Masson's trichrome.
resultsSEM showed the MSCs to be well-attached to the superficial area of the BP. The expression of osteocyte-specific genes was the highest in the MSCs cultured with BP and BMP2, followed by cultured with BP only, and untreated MSCs. The BP/MSC/BMP2 group showed the highest radiodensity of bullae in microCT analysis. The microCT findings revealed that the BP/MSC/BMP2 group showed the most enhanced osteogenesis of the scaffold compared to the other two groups. No significant difference was found in osteoconductive osteogenesis between the control and BP/MSC groups. However, the BP/MSC/BMP2 group showed significantly enhanced osteoconductive osteogenesis and osteoinductive change of the BP as shown by hematoxylin and eosin staining. Histomorphometry of osteogenesis revealed that the difference between the BP/MSC/BMP2 group and the other two groups was statistically significant.
conclusionA small amount of BMP2 is necessary during MSC loading to enhance the osteogenesis of BP and avoid complications associated with high doses of BMP2. These results may be applicable to mastoid obliteration in clinical practice.
