The assessment of stress, depression, and inflammation as a collective risk factor for periodontal diseases: a systematic review.
Synthesis in Clinical oral investigations, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 40 papers, 5 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 purpose of this review was to provide a novel perspective utilizing an assessment of biomarkers to evaluate the impact of stress-related disorders on the progression of periodontal disease and evaluate the growing body of evidence of stress as a risk indicator for periodontal disease progression.
methodsCross-sectional, case-control, and biomarker studies associating psychological disorders and periodontal disease were included in the literature search. Computational studies, animal studies, reviews, and studies lacking healthy controls were excluded. Electronic and manual literature searches were conducted by two independent reviewers in several databases as well as a manual search for relevant articles published up to January 2018.
resultsTwenty-six articles fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included in the qualitative synthesis. Relationships between stress-related disorders and serum and salivary biomarkers such as cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), chromogranin A (CgA), and pro-inflammatory cytokines were identified.
conclusionsThe use of salivary pro-inflammatory cytokines alone is not sufficient for the identification of periodontal disease severity/progression with or without the presence of stress-associated diseases. Keeping in mind the limitations of this review, a positive qualitative correlation was observed in the literature among stress-related biomarkers and the severity of periodontal disease. This correlation may serve as an important reporter of patient susceptibility for periodontal breakdown in the future. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Stress-related disorders should be included in the list of globally screened diseases because it can change the biochemistry of both the local periodontal microenvironment as well as the global systemic inflammatory burden.
