Antimicrobial Potential of Strontium-Functionalized Titanium Against Bacteria Associated With Peri-Implantitis.
Article in Clinical and experimental dental research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesTo explore the antimicrobial potential of strontium (Sr)-functionalized wafers against multiple bacteria associated with per-implant infections, in both mono- and multispecies biofilms. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe bactericidal and bacteriostatic effect of silicon wafers functionalized with a strontium titanium oxygen coating (Sr-Ti-O) or covered only with Ti (controls) against several bacteria, either grown as a mono-species or multispecies biofilms, was assessed using a bacterial viability assay and a plate counting method. Mono-species biofilms were assessed after 2 and 24 h, while the antimicrobial effect on multispecies biofilms was assessed at Days 1, 3, and 6. The impact of Sr functionalization on the total percentage of Porphyromonas gingivalis in the multispecies biofilm, using qPCR, and gingipain activity was also assessed.
resultsSr-functionalized wafers, compared to controls, were associated with statistically significant less viable cells in both mono- and multispecies tests. The number of colony forming units (CFUs) within the biofilm was significantly less in Sr-functionalized wafers, compared to control wafers, for Staphylococcus aureus at all time points of evaluation and for Escherichia coli at Day 1. Gingipain activity was less in Sr-functionalized wafers, compared to control wafers, and the qPCR showed that P. gingivalis remained below detection levels at Sr-functionalized wafers, while it consisted of 15% of the total biofilm on control wafers at Day 6.
conclusionSr functionalization displayed promising antimicrobial potential, possessing bactericidal and bacteriostatic ability against bacteria associated with peri-implantitis grown either as mono-species or mixed in a multispecies consortium with several common oral microorganisms.
