- - The study examined the bone healing effects of nanochitosan, with and without the corticosteroid dexamethasone, compared to an autograft and a control group in rabbits.

- - Results showed that both nanochitosan and the combination with dexamethasone improved bone formation without causing significant inflammation, making them comparable to traditional autografts in terms of healing outcomes.
