Osseointegration Aspects of Implants at the Bone Reconstruction Site by a Novel Porous Titanium Scaffold.
Article in Journal of oral & maxillofacial research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesPorous titanium is used for the reconstruction of large bone defects due to its excellent mechanical strength. The quality of osseointegration of implants placed in bone reconstructed with porous titanium is unknown. The purpose of this MATERIAL AND
methodsHollow porous titanium (Ti) (outer-diameter 6 mm, inner-diameter 2 mm, length 4 mm, 85% porosity) and similar-sized porous hydroxyapatite (porous HA: 75% porosity) samples were prepared and implanted in 6 New Zealand white rabbit femurs. Four weeks later, an implant bed was created to receive a Ti implant (diameter 2 mm, length 4 mm). An implant placed at a pristine bone site served as the control. Four weeks later, histological and histomorphometric evaluations of the test and control sites were conducted.
resultsOsseointegration was observed in all groups. There was no significant difference in the bone formation ratio and bone-implant contact (BIC) ratio across all groups for the whole area. At the cancellous bone area of the bone defect, superior bone formation ratio and BIC ratio were observed with porous Ti and porous HA compared to the control (bone formation ratio: control 1.8 [SD 3]%, HA 23 [SD 3]%, Ti 23.6 [SD 5]%; BIC ratio: control 5.4 [SD 5.3]%, HA 28.9 [SD 10.7]%, Ti 41.6 [SD 14]%). Porous Ti demonstrated good osteoconduction and osseointegration abilities, similar to porous HA.
conclusionsTo our knowledge, this is the first report of implant treatment after preliminary bone reconstruction using a titanium biomaterial. Porous titanium is a suitable material for bone reconstruction before implant treatment in load-bearing areas that allow subsequent prosthetic treatment.
