Osseointegration Process Improving
Review in Current topics in medicinal chemistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
INTRODUCTION/
objectivesFailures of osseointegrated implants pose significant challenges in the medical field, often due to prolonged osseointegration periods and bacterial infections. Functionalization of Titanium Dioxide Nanotubes (TNTs) has emerged as a promising strategy to improve osseointegration and mitigate infections. This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis and review to identify trends, gaps, and advancements in research on the functionalization of TNTs for osseointegration improvement.
methodsArticles were retrieved from the Web of Science database using the keywords "osseointegration," "titanium dioxide nanotubes," and "functionalization." The inclusion criteria were studies published between 2014 and 2023, written in English, and focusing on the use of TNTs in implant surface modifications. A total of 126 articles were included after screening. Data extraction and analysis were performed using VOS Viewer, Microsoft Excel, and GraphPad Prism.
resultsThe review revealed a growing number of publications on TNTs functionalization, with China, the United States, and Brazil leading in contributions. Key findings include the effectiveness of TNTs loaded with bioactive agents (e.g., silver, strontium, hydroxyapatite) in promoting osseointegration and antibacterial activity. Collaborative networks among institutions and authors were mapped, highlighting the Sao Paulo State University and Yong Huang as the most prolific contributors.
conclusionThe findings underscore the potential of TNTs functionalization to enhance implant performance. However, a gap remains in translating preclinical findings into clinical trials. Future research should focus on clinical validation to bridge this gap and translate laboratory advancements into therapeutic solutions.
