Comparison of the newly formed bone area in the L-mRCP and the S-mRCP implanted groups at different locations in the defect site 4 weeks after implantation. (A) The entire bone defect (5.0 mm × 0.8 mm), (B) central bone defect (2.5 mm × 0.8 mm), (C) peripheral bone defect on both sides (1.25 mm × 0.8 mm × 2), (D) top side (5.0 mm × 0.4 mm), and (E) bottom side (5.0 mm × 0.4 mm) were measured from the entire calvarial bone defect using ImageJ software. ∗∗∗P < 0.001, ∗∗P < 0.01. The graphs show the mean value with the corresponding SD (n = 3/group).
