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

backgroundRecent evidence suggests that periodontitis (PD) causes hypertension, which is a precursor to development of other systemic diseases. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of hypertension and PD on the risk of subsequent systemic disease.

methodsThis longitudinal cohort study included 244,393 UK Biobank participants who were free of systemic disease other than hypertension at baseline. Self-reported responses of painful gums or loose teeth were surrogates for PD. Hypertensives were identified by clinical diagnosis, or elevated blood pressure (≥140/90 mmHg). Systemic diseases including cancer, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and diabetes were identified from linked diagnostic codes. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to quantify the risk of systemic diseases and all-cause mortality, stratified by hypertensive and PD status.

resultsThe average age of the study population was 55.4 years (standard deviation [SD:] 8.1 years), and 130,220 (53.3%) participants were female. At baseline, 131,566 (53.8%) participants were hypertensive and 4.5% reported PD. The incidence rates of all systemic diseases were higher in hypertensive than non-hypertensive participants of the same PD status. In hypertensives, an additive effect was observed for PD on the risks of CVD (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 1.35, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.21-1.53) and respiratory disease (HR: 1.11, 95% CI: 0.95-1.30) compared to hypertensive healthy controls.

conclusionsHypertensives with PD have exacerbated risks of several systemic diseases. Future interventional studies should consider the effect of periodontal treatment on systemic outcomes in targeted hypertensive populations.
