A retrospective study comparing oral health in cancer patients and healthy people.
Article in European journal of translational myology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between oral and dental health in cancer patients and control group, which was conducted in Tabriz Shahid Gazi hospital. A researchers-made and validated questionnaire including oral and dental health criteria, was filled by the cancer patients (201 cases) and healthy controls (199 cases). Then, the results of the study were analyzed by SPSS software, and reported as Odds ratios (95 % confidence intervals) in tow groups. The results indicate that comparison of filled tooth, tooth extraction, dental caries, and gingival problems including bleeding, gum surgery and inflammation in cancer and controls were significantly meaningful. However, the comparison between the two groups was not significant in terms of the type of the tooth (natural or denture) and the number of daily toothbrushes, but they were considered as risk factors due to statistical results. Environmental factors, and especially oral hygiene, can play an important role in the incidence of different cancers. Among these, the type of oral microorganisms, and their overgrowth and released antigens should be studied further in the emergence of different kinds of cancer in humans.
