Evaluation of Stability of Surface-Treated Mini-Implants in Diabetic Rabbits
Figure 1
Comparison between the changes of the rabbit’s weight in the control (black) and diabetic (red) groups throughout the 8-week experimental period. (a) An asterisk (*) represents a significant difference (). (b) The line graph represents the blood glucose levels for the control (black) and diabetic (red) groups. The blood glucose level in the diabetic group increased significantly 1 week after injection of alloxan monohydrate and remained increased for the rest of the experimental period ().
