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

Periodontitis-associated alveolar bone loss reflects not only persistent inflammation but also profound metabolic remodeling within the periodontal microenvironment. This review synthesizes current evidence on how lipid metabolic reprogramming regulates periodontal bone remodeling and its therapeutic significance. Under physiological conditions, fatty acid uptake and β-oxidation, lipid droplet turnover, and lipid-derived signaling support osteoblast bioenergetics, stem-cell osteogenesis, and balanced bone remodeling. In contrast, dyslipidemia and chronic inflammatory stress promote the accumulation of free fatty acids, oxidized lipoproteins, cholesterol derivatives, and sphingolipid metabolites, thereby enhancing reactive oxygen species production, lipid peroxidation, inflammasome activation, and pro-inflammatory immune polarization. These changes suppress osteogenic differentiation, stimulate osteoclastogenesis, and impair periodontal regeneration. We further integrate major regulatory networks, including PPARγ-Wnt/β-catenin, AMPK-mTOR, NF-κB/NLRP3, and GSK3β-NRF2/ferroptosis signaling. Therapeutic strategies targeting these lipid-redox-immune circuits include specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators, n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, statins, metabolic modulators, and local biomaterial- or nanocarrier-based delivery systems. Accordingly, lipid metabolic reprogramming may provide a framework for developing metabolism-oriented adjunctive and regenerative strategies for periodontitis.
