A novel porous hydroxyapatite scaffold (pHAMG) enhances angiogenesis and osteogenesis around dental implants by regulating the immune microenvironment.

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
objectiveThe purpose was to evaluate whether a novel porous hydroxyapatite (HA) scaffold with a 25-30-µm groove structure (pHAMG) may improve bone osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and bone integration of titanium dental implants in animal models.
methodsThe pHAMG was prepared by chemical precipitation method and its elemental composition and crystal structure were evaluated. The ability of the scaffolds to induce ectopic osteogenesis and the ability of scaffolds combined with titanium dental implants to induce orthotopic peri-implant angiogenesis, osteogenesis, and osteointegration were tested after implantation into the femur muscle pocket in rats and the mandibular defects in beagle dogs, respectively. The elemental composition was evaluated by SEM-EDS; the expression of the relevant osteogenic/inflammation marker and the anti-/pro-inflammation markers was evaluated by immunostaining and immunofluorescence, respectively.
resultsIn animal experiments with ectopic and peri-implant osteogenesis, pHAMG resulted in significantly larger neovascularization by hematoxylin-eosin staining, as well as deposition of collagen fibers by Masson staining than HA. Meanwhile, microgrooves in pHAMG upregulate more bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) 2 and interleukin-4 (IL-4) and -10 (IL-10) and downregulate more IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) than that in HA. The pHAMG showed greater expression of arginase (Arg)-1 and lower expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) than HA.
conclusionThe novel pHAMG can better repair bone defects in ectopic and orthotopic model. It also transfers macrophages to anti-inflammatory phenotypes, promoting angiogenic and osteogenesis in scaffolds, and bone integration in implants. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The novel pHAMG induce greater osteogenesis and angiogenesis which could be utilized in the clinical treatment.
