Application of mesenchymal stromal cell sheets to prevent medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw with titanium implants in rats.
Article in Odontology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is an intractable adverse event. Dental implants are one of the triggering factors of MRONJ, and implant therapy with low MRONJ risk is required. This study aimed to investigate a rat model of MRONJ induced by extraoral placement of titanium materials and the use of mesenchymal stromal cell (MSCs) sheets to prevent MRONJ. Eight-week-old male rats were administered zoledronate and dexamethasone thrice weekly until killing. A week after drug initiation, a titanium screw and a plate were placed on the left buccal side of the mandible. Allogeneic bone marrow-derived MSC sheets were co-grafted with the titanium plates in the MSC sheet ( +) group. Six weeks after titanium placement, the rats were killed, and their excised mandibular bones were subjected to micro-computed tomography (CT) analysis. Histological analysis was performed after the titanium implants were removed. Empty lacunae visualized on hematoxylin and eosin staining were used as evidence of bone necrosis. Bone necrosis was reduced in the MSC sheet ( +) group. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining revealed a decreased number of TRAP-positive cells in areas with a large number of empty lacunae in the MSC sheet (-) group. Micro-CT analyses demonstrated that the bone volume fraction (BV/TV) was not significantly different between the MSC sheet (-) and ( +) groups. We conclude that MRONJ can be triggered by a titanium placement in rats, and grafting of allogeneic MSC sheets has the potential to prevent MRONJ.
