In the present study, the immunohistochemical analysis shows that the tissues below the titanium bars underwent a higher rate of inflammatory and reparative processes. However, further long-term studies, where clinical and immunohistochemical data are collected in parallel, should be conducted for a better understanding of the expression pattern of inflammation markers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
