Dietary inflammatory potential is associated with poor periodontal health: A population-based study.
Article in Journal of clinical periodontology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 57 papers, 5 of them syntheses 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 investigate the association between dietary inflammatory potential and poor periodontal health. MATERIAL AND
methodsA cross-sectional analysis of a nationally representative sample of participants was performed. NHANES 2011-2014 (n = 7081) and NHANES 2001-2004 (n = 5098) were used as discovery and validation datasets, respectively. The energy-adjusted dietary inflammatory index (E-DII) score was calculated for each participant based on 24-h dietary recalls to assess diet-associated inflammation. Periodontitis was defined by the CDC/AAP using clinical periodontal parameters. Natural cubic spline was applied to identify any non-linear associations of the E-DII score with moderate/severe periodontitis. Furthermore, interaction analyses were performed by age, gender, and race/ethnicity to explore the moderating roles of these factors.
resultsIn the discovery dataset, a non-linear positive relationship with periodontitis was identified for the E-DII score (p
conclusionConsuming a pro-inflammatory diet indicated by the E-DII score is associated with periodontal disease in the U.S. general adult population.
