Assessment of nerve regeneration using nerve guidance conduits in inferior alveolar nerve injuries.
Article in Bioinformation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Injuries to the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) often cause persistent sensory deficits and current treatment options such as autografts have limitations. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the role of collagen-based nerve guidance conduits (NGCs) in promoting IAN regeneration in 20 rabbits with 5 mm nerve gaps. Functional recovery was assessed by whisker movement scores, electrophysiology and histomorphometric analysis at 4, 8 and 12 weeks. Results showed significantly better outcomes in the NGC group, including higher whisker movement scores, improved CMAP amplitudes and greater axon counts compared to controls. Thus, we show that NGCs enhance structural and functional nerve recovery and represent a promising therapeutic approach for peripheral nerve repair in the maxillofacial region.
