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

Background/purpose: Osseointegration potential is greatly depended on the interaction between bone cells and dental implant surface. Since zirconia ceramic has a bioinert surface, functionalization of the surface with an organic compound allylamine was conducted to overcome its drawback of minimal interaction with the surrounding bone. Materials and methods: The zirconia surface was initially treated with argon glow discharge plasma (GDP), then combined with amine plasma at three different conditions of 50-W, 75-W and 85-W, to prepare the final samples. The surface characteristics and cell biocompatibility were then evaluated. Results: Surface morphology analysis revealed a bulbous pattern on allylamine-treated sample groups. The aromatic C-H, C-O, N-H, C ˆ C, and C-H stretching and functional groups have been identified. Surface roughness increased, and hydrophilicity improved after surface modification. Cell viability analysis showed the highest result for the allylamine 50-W (A50) group. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assay indicated the A50 group had the highest activity, subsequently promoting late-stage mineralization at day 21. The reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) data demonstrated a significant upregulation of osteogenic gene expressions from day 1 to day 21. Conclusion: The allylamine-treated surface demonstrates immense enhancement in the surface hydrophilicity as well as in the viability, differentiation, and osteogenic properties of osteoblast-like cells. This makes it a promising candidate for future dental implant applications.
