The relationship between COVID-19 and the dental damage stage determined by radiological examination.

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
objectiveCOVID-19 causes severe complications particularly in respiratory system especially in the elderly and those with poor general health. General and oral health are closely related to the course of such viral diseases. This study aims to reveal the relationship between the Dental Damage Stage (DD Stg) and the severity of COVID-19 disease. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe study included 137 patients (20-65 years) based on oral examination records and panoramic X-rays of 1516 COVID-19 patients diagnosed through real time PCR tests. DD Stg were determined according to data of Apical Periodontitis Grading Scale, Radiologic Alveolar Bone Loss and Pathophysiological Process of Dental Caries obtained from dental radiological images. DD Stg were determined according to the severity of dental pathology and compared in terms of age, gender, numbers of dental caries (NDC), dental implants (NDI), root canal treatment (NRCT), tooth fillings (NTF), missing teeth (NMT) and hospitalization due to COVID-19 (NHC), presence of chronic disease (CD), and symptom associated with COVID-19 (SAC)
resultsPatients in DD Stg 3 had significantly higher age and mortality. CD, NDC and NHC values were higher in DD Stg 2 and 3 than in DD Stg 0 and 1. NHCs were higher in DD Stg 3 than in DD Stg 2. NMTs were higher in DD Stg 3 than other stages. SACs were significantly lower in DD Stg 0 than in DD Stg 1, 2 and 3. NDC, NHC, SAC and CD were effective on DD staging; they were moderately positively related.
conclusionsThe relationship detected between DD stage and the severity and prognosis of viral disease such as COVID-19 was found to be remerkable for extensive studies.
