Effect of amoxicillin and clindamycin on the gene expression of markers involved in osteoblast physiology.
Article in Journal of dental sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background/purpose: Amoxicillin and clindamycin are the most effective decontaminants for intraoral bone grafts before their application in bone regeneration without cytotoxic effects on osteoblasts, but their effects on the gene expression of markers involved in osteoblast growth and differentiation remain unclear. The study objective was to determine the effects of amoxicillin and clindamycin on the gene expression of markers involved in osteoblast growth and differentiation. Materials and methods: Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was performed to explore the effect of 150 μg/mL clindamycin or 400 μg/mL amoxicillin on the gene expression by primary human osteoblasts (HOBs) of runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx-2), osterix (OSX), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OSC), osteoprotegerin (OPG), receptor activator for nuclear factor κ B ligand (RANKL), type I collagen (Col-I), bone morphogenetic proteins 2 and 7 (BMP-2 and BMP-7), TGF-β1 and TGF-β receptors (TGF-βR1, TGF-βR2, and TGF-βR3), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Results: Treatment with 150 μg/mL clindamycin significantly increased the gene expression of TFG-β1, TGF-βR1, TGF-βR2, TGF-βR3, RUNX-2, Col-1, OSX, OSC, BMP-2, BMP-7, ALP, VEGF, and RANKL by HOBs. Treatment with 400 μg/mL amoxicillin significantly increased the gene expression of TGF-β R1, Col-I, OSC, RANKL, and OPG alone. Conclusion: These findings suggest that 150 μg/mL clindamycin is the decontaminant of choice to treat intraoral bone grafts before their application in bone regeneration. The osteogenic and antibacterial properties of clindamycin can favor and accelerate the integration of bone grafts in the oral cavity.
