Effect of photobiomodulation with isolated or combined use of red and infrared lasers on repair of sites grafted with deproteinized bovine bone.

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
The current study aimed to evaluate different PBMT protocols using red and infrared lasers, both individually and in combination, for bone regeneration in sites grafted with deproteinized bovine bone (DBB). Forty-eight rats were evaluated in two experimental periods (30 and 90 days - n=6). A Teflon capsule was placed bilaterally in the jaw ramus of each animal and filled with DBB. The groups were divided according to the type of treatment applied to the grafted area: CTR: No adjunctive treatment; IRL: PBMT with an infrared laser; RL: PBMT with a red laser; IRL/RL: PBMT with an infrared and a red laser. The following analyses were performed: 1) Microtomography to evaluate the volume and microstructure of the grafted area; and 2) Histomorphometry to evaluate the composition of the repaired tissue in the grafted area. The IRL/RL group presented greater trabecular thickness than the CTR group at 90 days (p<0.05), while the CTR group presented a greater number of trabeculae than the IRL group at 90 days (p <0.05). Regarding histomorphometry analysis, the IRL/RL group presented a greater amount of bone at 90 days than all other groups (p<0.05) and a lower amount of soft tissue than the CTR and RL groups at 90 days (p<0.05). PBMT associated with the infrared and red lasers improves bone repair at DBB-grafted sites.
