Fractal characteristics of the trabecular pattern of the mandible in patients with renal transplantation

Objective In this study, we examined the mandibular trabecular bone structures by performing fractal dimension (FD) analysis in patients who underwent renal transplantation (RTx). Methods Our study is an observational study with 69 RTx patients and 35 control group patients. The mean FD values of th...

Zusammenfassung:Objective In this study, we examined the mandibular trabecular bone structures by performing fractal dimension (FD) analysis in patients who underwent renal transplantation (RTx). Methods Our study is an observational study with 69 RTx patients and 35 control group patients. The mean FD values of the patient and control groups were calculated and compared. In addition, biochemical parathyroid hormone (PTH), serum calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and vitamin‐D parameters and FD values of both groups were analyzed. Results FD values were significantly lower in the patient group than in the healthy group (p
