Methods: a systematic review was carried out based on PRISMA statement guidelines. A PubMed search was conducted to find original papers on animal models of bone infections using local antibiotic delivery systems with the characteristics of bone substitutes. Articles without a control group, differing from the experimental group only by the addition of antibiotics to the bone substitute, were excluded. Results: a total of 1185 records were retrieved, and after a three-step selection, 34 papers were included. Six manuscripts studied the effect of antibiotic-loaded biomaterials on bone infection prevention. Five articles studied infection in the presence of foreign bodies. In all but one, the combination of an antibiotic with bioceramic bone substitutes tended to prevent or cure bone infection while promoting biomaterial osteointegration. Conclusions: this systematic review shows that the combination of antibiotics with bioceramic bone substitutes may be appropriate to treat bone infection when applied locally. The variability of the animal models, time to develop an infection, antibiotic used, way of carrying and releasing antibiotics, type of ceramic material, and endpoints limits the conclusions on the ideal therapy, enhancing the need for consistent models and guidelines to develop an adequate combination of material and antimicrobial agent leading to an effective human application.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ma16062387","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,17]],"date-time":"2023-03-17T02:29:59Z","timestamp":1679020199000},"page":"2387","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Local Antibiotic Delivery Ceramic Bone Substitutes for the Treatment of Infected Bone Cavities and Bone Regeneration: A Systematic Review on What We Have Learned from Animal Models"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2382-1106","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nuno","family":"Alegrete","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"i3S-Instituto de Investiga\u00e7\u00e3o e Inova\u00e7\u00e3o em Sa\u00fade, Universidade do Porto, R.
