Evaluation of bone regeneration using the rat critical size calvarial defect
Open accessAbstract
Animal models that are reliably reproducible, appropriate analogs to the clinical condition they are used to investigate, and that offer minimal morbidity and periprocedural mortality to the subject, are the keystone to the preclinical development of translational technologies. For bone tissue engineering, a number of small animal models exist. Here we describe the protocol for one such model, the rat calvarial defect. This versatile model allows for evaluation of biomaterials and bone tissue engineering approaches within a reproducible, non-load-bearing orthotopic site. Crucial steps for ensuring appropriate experimental control and troubleshooting tips learned through extensive experience with this model are provided. The surgical procedure itself takes ∼30 min to complete, with ∼2 h of perioperative care, and tissue collection is generally performed 4−12 weeks postoperatively. Several analytical techniques are presented, which evaluate the cellular and extracellular matrix components, functionality and mineralization, including histological, mechanical and radiographic methods.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
