Effectiveness of an Interdisciplinary Medical Hospital Admission Center: The Role of the Dental Section in the Interdisciplinary System for Perioperative Management of Patients Awaiting Surgery.
Article in Journal of medical systems, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Perioperative oral functional management (POFM) involves total oral management of a patient before surgery. Considerable benefits have been reported, but POFM remains scarce in medical settings. An interdisciplinary Medical Hospital Admission Center (MHAC) opened in our hospital in December 2014, and has since provided unified perioperative management for patients. This study reports on the clinical system and contributions of the systematized, standardized POFM applied through the MHAC. Patients awaiting surgery undergo oral screening before admission, with patients classified into three groups: red, needing surgical oral management (tooth extraction or other oral surgery) before surgery; yellow, needing non-surgical oral management before surgery, due to the planned surgery or the risk of tooth injury in connection with general anesthesia; or green, patients with good oral hygiene considered capable of suitable oral self-management. Patients categorized as red or yellow undergo POFM in the dental section of the MHAC before surgery. Almost all patients (88.8%) awaiting surgery now undergo preoperative oral screening, excluding emergent surgeries. In addition, oral screening is important for preventing tooth injury during endotracheal intubation for general anesthesia, and a need for preventive measures was identified in 6.1% of patients. No traumatic injuries of the teeth in connection with general anesthesia have occurred since the opening of the MHAC. Standardized POFM through an interdisciplinary MHAC thus seems extremely useful.
