The eggshell membrane as a barrier membrane for guided bone regeneration.
Article in Regenerative medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundThe eggshell membrane (ESM) is a natural resource with a distinct design and composition, offering structural features consistent with barrier membranes used in guided bone regeneration (GBR), making it a promising candidate for this application. This study aims to assess the feasibility of chicken and duck ESMs as GBR alternatives by comparing them with resorbable porcine-derived collagen (Porcine CM, Bio-Gide®) and non-resorbable dense polytetrafluoroethylene (d-PTFE, Cytoplast
methodsESMs were extracted using a standardized protocol. Membranes were then analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), contact angle measurements (CAM), and cell culture-based assays.
resultsFTIR revealed similar collagen spectra among membranes. SEM showed structural similarities between ESMs and Bio-Gide. DSC indicated integrity maintenance at 37°C and varied storage conditions. CAM testing demonstrated collagen-based membranes' higher hydrophilicity compared to d-PTFE. DMA analysis showed duck ESM's superior tensile strength and Young's modulus compared to chicken ESM and porcine CM. Biological evaluation revealed high compatibility with human gingival fibroblasts for all materials.
conclusionFindings illustrate a novel sustainable biomaterial that could be utilized for GBR and other periodontal therapies, particularly in its capacity to function as a physical barrier consistent with the traditional role of GBR membranes.
