Estrogen receptor gene is associated with dental fluorosis in Brazilian children.
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
objectivesThe aim of this study was investigate the association between genetic polymorphisms in ESR1, ESR2, and ESRRB and dental fluorosis (DF) in a well-characterized sample of children from Curitiba, Brazil. MATERIAL AND
methodsFrom a representative sample of 538 children, 12-year-old were evaluated. DF was assessed in erupted permanent teeth by the Dean's index modified. Fourteen polymorphisms were selected in intronic and intergenic regions of ESR1, ESR2, and ESRRB and genotyped in genomic DNA source from saliva using TaqMan chemistry and end-point analysis. Allele and genotype distributions between DF and DF free groups were analyzed using the Epi Info 7.2. Chi-square or Fisher's exact tests at a level of significance of 5% and odds ratios calculations with 95% confidence intervals were used to determine the statistical associations.
resultsAmong 538 children, 147 were DF and 391 were DF free. Genotype distribution for the polymorphism rs12154178 in ESR1 was different between the two groups (p = 0.037; OR = 0.91; CI = 0.67-1.22). The dominant model analysis (AA+AC vs. CC) demonstrated that CC is a protective factor for DF (p = 0.038; OR = 0.51, 0.27-0.97 95% CI). We did not find differences in frequency distributions in the other evaluated polymorphisms.
conclusionThis study provides evidence that ESR1 is associated with DF. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Dental fluorosis is an important condition that affects the mineralized tissues of the teeth. In severe cases, the treatment takes time and is extremely costly. This research provides evidences that there are genetic factors involved in dental fluorosis and will help professionals to plan more precise strategies to reduce dental fluorosis occurrence.
