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

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the osteogenic differentiation ability and proliferation of apical papilla stem cells using nanoparticles of Neo MTA and bioactive glass. Methods: Neo MTA and bioactive glass 45S5 nanoparticles were prepared and characterized using a transmission electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. Apical papilla stem cells were harvested from freshly-extracted fully-impacted wisdom teeth, cultured, and characterized using flow cytometric analysis. Tested nanomaterials were mixed and samples were classified into four equal groups as follows; Negative control group: SCAP with Dulbecco's modified eagle's medium, Positive control group: SCAP with inductive media, First experimental group: Neo MTA nanoparticles with SCAP, Second experimental group: Bioactive glass nanoparticles with SCAP. Osteoblastic differentiation was assessed using an alkaline phosphatase assay and RANKL expression using specific polyclonal antibodies by fluorescence microscope Results: Isolated SCAP showed a non-hematopoietic origin. Neo MTA showed the highest ALP concentration followed by bioactive glass nanoparticles, and negative control. Bioactive glass nanoparticles showed the highest H score for RANKL protein expression followed by Neo MTA, and negative control. Bioactive glass nanoparticles showed the highest viable cell count. Conclusions: SCAP isolation is achievable from extracted fully impacted immature third molars. Both tested nanobiomaterials have the ability to induce osteogenic differentiation and proliferation of SCAP.
