(a, b) Illustration showing length measurements of the mandibular alveolar bone (a) and femur (b). Measurement of the maxillary alveolar bone (not shown) was the same as for the mandible. (c) Bone length during and after administration of human IGF-I, shown as a percentage of bone length in the control group at the same time (* , mandibular alveolar bone versus other bones). Data represent the mean ± SD of six rats, adapted from a previous report [7].
