1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the complementarity of surgical therapy, photobiomodulation (PBM), advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF), and Leukocyte and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) for the management of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ).

methodsSixty rats underwent injection of zoledronate followed by left mandibular first and second molar extractions to induce MRONJ lesions. All rats were examined for the signs of MRONJ 8 weeks post-dental extraction. Forty-nine rats with positive signs of MRONJ were appointed to seven different groups as follows: control (Ctrl); surgery alone (Surg); surgery and PBM (Surg + PBM); surgery and A-PRF insertion (Surg + APRF); surgery and L-PRF insertion (Surg + LPRF); surgery, A-PRF insertion, and PBM (Surg + APRF + PBM); surgery, L-PRF insertion, and PBM (Surg + LPRF + PBM). Euthanasia was carried out 30 days after the last treatment session. The lesions' healing was evaluated clinically, histologically, and radiographically. Data were analyzed using STATA software version 14, and the statistical significance level was set at 5% for all cases.

resultsAccording to the present study, A-PRF and L-PRF treatment resulted in significant improvements in clinical, histological, and radiographical parameters compared to the Ctrl group (P < 0.05). The PBM also decreased wound dimensions and the number of empty lacunae compared to the Ctrl group (P < 0.05). Surg + APRF + PBM and Surg + LPRF + PBM were the only groups that presented a significantly higher mean number of osteocytes (P < 0.05). No significant differences were observed between A-PRF and L-PRF treatment groups (P > 0.05).

conclusionsSurgical resection followed by applying A-PRF or L-PRF reinforced by PBM showed optimal wound healing and bone regeneration in MRONJ lesions.
