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

Minnesota has the largest population of Somali refugees with the majority depending on public insurance for dental care. The social determinants of health (SDOH) framework is helpful to identify factors that may be related to oral health, and subsequently plan for public health initiatives. The purpose of this study was to measure the correlation between Somali refugee mother-child caries experience, and to identify associations between SDOH factors and child caries. The study was conducted in day care facilities where oral screenings and surveys identified SDOH factors at the individual, provider, community and environmental levels. A positive correlation was found between mother-child caries experience. Factors associated with child caries (p ≤ 0.05) were found at all SDOH levels except the provider level though only individual level factors for mothers and children yielded the expected results. SDOH affecting child caries were limited to individual demographic, behavioral and attitudinal factors.
