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

The present study aimed to assess the relationship between periodontal condition and endothelial function using a noninvasive device. Many recent studies have reported associations between periodontitis and cardiovascular diseases. Endothelial dysfunction is the first step of atherosclerosis, but information on the association between periodontal disease and endothelial dysfunction remains limited. Thirty-three subjects were recruited from among patients at a private medical clinic. We examined vascular endothelial function using a noninvasive medical device and periodontal measurements including probing pocket depth, attachment level, tooth mobility, and oral cleaning condition. Subjects were divided into two groups according to endothelial function score. Tooth mobility and number of lost teeth were increased in the group with endothelial dysfunction. A greater frequency of elderly subjects and altered hemoglobin A1c levels were seen in the endothelial dysfunction group. On multiple logistic regression analysis, increased tooth mobility was independently associated with endothelial dysfunction. Increased tooth mobility, a major periodontal parameter, appears related to endothelial dysfunction.
