Associations of periodontitis and oral manifestations with CD4 counts in human immunodeficiency virus-pregnant women in Thailand.
Article in Oral surgery, oral medicine, oral pathology and oral radiology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesTo investigate the associations of CD4 count with chronic periodontitis and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related oral lesions in pregnant HIV-infected Thai women. STUDY
designTwo hundred ninety-two HIV-infected pregnant women were interviewed for health information and examined for their periodontal condition and HIV-related oral lesions during weeks 16-34 of gestation. Logistic regression, t tests and Chi-squared tests were used to examine the associations of CD4 count with oral lesions and periodontal conditions.
resultsOne hundred thirty-three women (45.6%) had at least 1 tooth with a periodontal pocket over 4 mm. Thirty-eight (17.76%) subjects had oral candidiasis and 53 subjects (24.77%) had oral hairy leukoplakia (OHL). Low CD4 count was significantly associated with periodontitis at odds ratio (OR) = 2.06 with 95% confidence interval (CI) = [1.00-4.27], P = .05. A significant association was found for low CD4 count with OHL with OR = 3.57, 95% CI = [1.34-9.46], P = .01.
conclusionsChronic periodontitis and OHL were associated with CD4 count lower than 200 cells/mm(3) in HIV-infected women.
