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 investigate the influence of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on mandibular critical-sized defect regeneration in rats with experimentally induced type I diabetes mellitus. Restoration of large osseous defects in an impaired osteogenic condition such as diabetes mellitus is a challenging task in clinical practice. Therefore, investigating adjunctive therapies to accelerate the regeneration of such defects is crucial. MATERIALS AND

methodsSixteen albino rats were divided into two groups (n = 8/group). To induce diabetes mellitus, a single streptozotocin dosage was injected. Critical-sized defects were created in the right posterior mandibles and filled with beta-tricalcium phosphate graft. The study group was subjected to 90-min sessions of hyperbaric oxygen at 2.4 ATA, for 5 consecutive days per week. Euthanasia was carried out after 3 weeks of therapy. Bone regeneration was examined histologically and histomorphometrically. Angiogenesis was assessed by immunohistochemistry against vascular endothelial progenitor cell marker (CD34) and the microvessel density was calculated.

resultsExposure of diabetic animals to hyperbaric oxygen resulted in superior bone regeneration and increased endothelial cell proliferation, which were revealed histologically and immunohistochemically, respectively. These results were confirmed by histomorphometric analysis which disclosed a higher percentage of new bone surface area and microvessel density in the study group.

conclusionsHyperbaric oxygen has a beneficial effect on bone regenerative capacity, qualitatively and quantitively, as well as the ability to stimulate angiogenesis.
