Dental restorative treatment expenditure and resource utilization in patients with chronic kidney disease: A nationwide population-based study.
Article in Journal of dental sciences, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
background/purposeThere is a variety of pathological alterations occurring in the oral cavity are strongly associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) or CKD therapy. The aim of this study is to conduct a retrospective analysis to examine the possible correlation between the dental restorative treatment modalities and the progression of kidney disease in CKD population. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 10,457 individuals were divided into three groups: (HC) group (n = 1438), high risk (HR) group (n = 3392), and CKD group (n = 5627). HR group were defined for those with an eGFR ≥60 (mL/min/1.73 m
resultsThe utilization and expenditures for various restorative treatments were significantly different among investigated groups, and the health insurance usage exhibited an inverse relationship with CKD stages, especially at CKD stages 4 and 5. A sustained decline in utilization and expenditures for restorative treatment was associated with the deterioration of kidney function. The lowest usage of these restorative modalities was noted in the CKD group and a marked difference was noted among investigated groups.
conclusionThe findings do, however, provide indirect evidence that if patients with progressive renal failure and receive less dental care.
