Tooth regeneration in animals. A systematic review.

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
backgroundMethods for creating bioengineered replacement teeth benefit from a detailed understanding of the molecular signaling networks that regulate the development of natural teeth. In oral and craniofacial research, spheroid cultures have been explored, various studies on organoids, such as those of salivary glands, taste buds, and teeth, are being conducted. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge on dental regeneration. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis review was registered in PROSPERO (CRD 646053) ad performed following PRISMA guidelines. An electronic search was conducted following the PICO question "In animals (P) subjected to bioengineering techniques (I), is successful dental regeneration achieved (O)?" For evaluating risk of bias, the Arrive scale and the JBI adapted for Quasi-experimental studies tools were used.
resultsA total of 83 articles on dental regeneration from the past 5 years were reviewed, and 4 articles that met the selection criteria were included. The studies describe complete dental regeneration in animal models by stimulating genes such as Wnt10a, Bmp6, Grem2a and the identification of genes and antibodies influencing BMP and Wnt signaling pathways (Sox-2), as well as the expression of key factors such as FGF.
conclusionsThe development of signaling pathways in dental formation has advanced, yet many uncertainties persist, particularly in the regeneration of complete teeth. Despite progress with animal models and genetic editing, identifying suitable cellular sources and understanding the key genes involved remain essential for future clinical applications.
