Osseointegration and osteoimmunology in implantology: assessment of the immune sustainability of dental implants using advanced sonographic diagnostics: research and case reports.
Article in The Journal of international medical research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveBone marrow defects of the jaw (BMDJ) surrounding dental implants, in combination with impaired bone-to-implant contact (BIC), are difficult to detect in X-rays. This study evaluated BMDJ surrounding titanium (Ti-Impl) and ceramic (Cer-Impl) dental implants and incomplete BIC using a new trans-alveolar ultrasonography device (TAU) with numerical scaling for BIC.
methodsThe titanium stimulation test (Ti-Stim) was used to detect immune overactivation in response to titanium. Bone density surrounding implants was measured using TAU. We also validated osteoimmune dysregulation.
resultsTAU values showed reduced BIC and decreased osseointegration for Ti-Impl. Moreover, TAU values in the Cer-Impl group were more than twice those in the Ti-Impl cohort. The multiplex analysis of C-C motif chemokine 5 (CCL5, also known as RANTES) expression revealed a 20-fold increase in BMDJ surrounding Ti-Impl. Higher levels of CCL5 inflammation were present in the positive Ti-Stim group.
conclusionsOur data indicate that Cer-Impl have an osteoimmune advantage over Ti-Impl. The key determinant for osteoimmune sustainability appears to be the absence of inflammation at the implant site. We therefore recommend the use of TAU to assess the implant site prior to implantation.
