Association between retinopathy, nephropathy, and periodontitis in type 2 diabetic patients: a Meta-analysis.
Article in International journal of ophthalmology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
aimTo verify the association between retinopathy, nephropathy, and periodontitis in type 2 diabetic (T2D) patients.
methodsSeveral electronic databases were available for our comprehensive search including China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese VIP Information (VIP), Wanfang, Web of Science, ScienceDirect and PubMed and were queried for relevant citations (updated to Mar. 2019). RevMan was utilized to perform Meta analysis and publication bias detection. After evaluation of the methodological quality of included studies, a fixed or random effect model was utilized to analyze data from included studies.
resultsA total of eight articles were finally included in this Meta analysis. In all 3987 subjects, there were 1207 T2D patients accompanying with microvascular complications and 1734 patients with periodontitis as well. The Meta forest plot presented little heterogeneity of the eight studies (
conclusionThe periodontitis is associated with diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy among T2D patients and further large sample size clinical trials are in need to confirm the findings.
