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 success of titanium dental implants rely on osseointegration, influenced by surface properties and early immune responses. While sandblasted and acid-etched (SLA) titanium surfaces have shown clinical success, macrophage-mediated immune responses at these interfaces remain poorly understood. Anatase nanostructures have been shown to influence macrophage polarization on smooth titanium, but their effects on micro-rough SLA surfaces are not fully explored. This study investigates the immunomodulatory effects of micro-nanostructured anatase coatings on SLA titanium using human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs). M0-MDMs, were cultured and polarized to M1 and M2- macrophages on Ti-machined, Ti-SLA, Ti-SLA-anatase, and coverslip control surfaces for 48 h. Macrophage behavior was assessed using CCK-8 assay, confocal microscopy, SEM, ELISA, and qRT-PCR. All surfaces demonstrated excellent cytocompatibility, with similar macrophage viability across all investigated groups. M1 macrophages showed upregulation of CCR7 and TNF-α, while M2 macrophages expressed CD209 and CCL13 across all surfaces. Importantly, Ti-SLA-anatase did not significantly alter M1 or M2 markers, cytokine secretion, or gene expression, and did not exacerbate inflammatory responses. Micro-nanostructured anatase coatings on SLA titanium are immunologically well-tolerated and do not increase inflammation. These findings, combined with previously reported enhanced osteogenic properties, suggest the clinical potential of anatase-coated SLA surfaces.
