Strontium enhances osseointegration of calcium phosphate cement: a histomorphometric pilot study in ovariectomized rats

Table 1 Sample sizes for statistical analyses

Of the 60 animals distributed into six groups of ten animals each (CPC and SPC at 1, 3, and 6 months), some got lost for BMD and/or histological measurement. In the 1-month group, two CPC implants disintegrated during preparation, and one animal with SPC had died earlier for unknown reasons. In the 3-month group, one CPC implant disintegrated during preparation, and one animal with CPC had died earlier for unknown reasons. In the 6-month group, two SPC implants disintegrated during preparation, and one animal with CPC and one with SPC had died earlier for unknown reasons.
