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

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of the biological properties of hDPSCs exposed to Bio MTA+ & ProRoot MTA pulp capping materials on the proliferation and odontogenic differentiation of hDPSCs. Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) were isolated from impacted third molars. Extracts of Bio MTA + and ProRoot MTA were prepared at a 1:1 ratio. The effects of the extracts on hDPSCs cytotoxicity and proliferation were assessed via a CCK-8 assay. Annexin V expression was investigated to assess the effects of both materials on the induction of apoptosis. The effects of ProRoot MTA and Bio MTA + extraction media on the stemness properties of hDPSCs were assessed via real-time quantitative PCR, and the expression of odontogenic markers (RUNX2, DMP1 & DSSP) was analyzed via RT‒PCR Alizarin Red staining. Cells exposed to Bio MTA + had the greatest degree of proliferation. The results of Annexin V staining indicated that Bio MTA + caused the least amount of apoptosis. RUNX2, DMP1 and DSSP were highly expressed by Bio MTA + and indicated successful odontogenic differentiation. Compared with ProRoot MTA, Bio MTA + exhibited an exceptional level of cytocompatibility, as well as advantageous bioactivities, including the preservation of stemness and an increase in the proliferation capacity of hDPSCs. In addition, it demonstrated favorable bioactive properties by stimulating odontogenic differentiation. Bio MTA + offers significant advantages in terms of biocompatibility, bioactivity, and regenerative potential, making it an excellent choice for procedures aimed at preserving or regenerating dental pulp tissue. However, additional research is required to address the lack of in vivo validation, as replicating physiological conditions is crucial for accurately assessing clinical outcomes and comparing them with results obtained from in vitro experiments.
