Effects of Nano-Hydroxyapatite-Coated PRF on Gingiva-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells: In Vitro Study.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. 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
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has been widely used in regenerative dentistry because of its potential to support tissue regeneration. Recently, modifications in PRF preparation protocols and tube surface characteristics have attracted attention because of their possible influence on fibrin organization and biologic activity. The present in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effects of nano-hydroxyapatite platelet-rich fibrin (HA-PRF) on gingiva-derived mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs) by comparing it with leukocyte platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) and titanium platelet-rich fibrin (T-PRF). Gingival tissue and venous blood samples were obtained from a systemically healthy male volunteer. PRF membranes were prepared using conventional glass tubes, nano-hydroxyapatite-coated tubes, and titanium tubes. GMSCs were isolated, characterized, and cultured with PRF membranes. Cell viability and metabolic activity were evaluated using MTT analysis. Apoptosis and necrosis rates were assessed by Annexin V/PI flow cytometry. VEGF and TGF-β1 release levels were determined by ELISA, whereas IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α gene expression levels were analyzed using qRT-PCR. The HA-PRF and L-PRF groups demonstrated higher cell viability values compared with the T-PRF group on day 7. Annexin V/PI analysis revealed no statistically significant differences between the groups in terms of apoptosis and necrosis. Growth factor release and cytokine gene expression profiles demonstrated time-dependent biologic responses in all PRF membranes. Within the limitations of this study, HA-PRF showed no evidence of cytotoxicity and demonstrated biologic responses comparable to those observed with conventional L-PRF. Both HA-PRF and L-PRF generally exhibited more favorable cellular responses than T-PRF under the present experimental conditions.
