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

Periodontitis and periodontal pathogens have been associated with systemic complications that influence comorbid conditions, such as cardiovascular disease. Using a zebrafish larvae infection model, Farrugia et al. show that Porphyromonas gingivalis causes vascular damage and increased endothelial permeability by degrading, via its gingipain proteases, platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1, and vascular endothelial cadherin, which are crucial for endothelial junctional integrity. These findings suggest a molecular mechanism whereby this oral pathogen may contribute to endothelial dysfunction and perhaps atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
