Evidence-Based Recommendations for the Oral Health of Patients with Parkinson's Disease.
Article in Neurology and therapy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
introductionPatients with Parkinson's disease (PD) present a variety of oral disease that can be worsened by xerostomia and sialorrhea. The patients' physical limitations, for example rigidity and tremor, add to the difficulty of oral care by the general dental surgeon. The objective of the present review was to organize a list of evidence-based recommendations for the oral care of patients with PD.
methodsA systematic review of the literature was carried out by specialists who selected the relevant papers and created a list of recommendations based upon the literature.
resultsFourteen papers (data reported in 16 articles) were included in this review. Patients with PD had reduced quality of oral health and hygiene, and high prevalence of gingival recession, periodontal disease, dental calculus, tooth decay, tooth mobility and loss, drooling, xerostomia, dysphagia and temporomandibular disorders. Most studies offered class IV evidence, while one paper had class II evidence.
conclusionPatients with PD present poor oral health with conditions that are mostly preventable.
