1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

background/purposeThe comprehensive periodontal treatment project (CPTP) is being implemented in Taiwan since 2010. This retrospective study compared the periodontal status, compliance rates, and influence of risk factors for periodontal recurrence and tooth loss among groups of patients who accepted CPTP and conventional periodontal treatment (CPT). MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 161 patients who received periodontal therapy were investigated and divided into compliant (

resultsThe 161 patients were followed-up for a mean of 3.8 years. The patients in the CPTP + PR subgroup exhibited shallower PPD, less BOP, improved PCR, and fewer tooth loss. Age, smoking, PPD ≥7 mm, and PCR ≥30% were associated with periodontal recurrence, whereas age, diabetes, BOP ≥30%, and duration of the follow-up period were correlated with tooth loss. PR apparently increased the compliance rate of patients (27.3% vs. 77.7%).

conclusionCPTP with PR led to an optimal and stable periodontal status in patients. Compliant patients maintained a significantly improved periodontal status as compared with noncompliant patients.
