Assessment of dental caries and salivary characteristics among type 1 diabetic Saudi children.
Article in Journal of dental sciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06924372 (Application of Salivary Biomarkers in Risk Assessment for Oral Diseases in Children With Type 1 Diabetes), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Background/purpose: Type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) is considered the most common chronic disease in childhood. This study aimed to assess dental caries and salivary characteristics among a group of Saudi children with DM1. Materials and methods: Forty children with DM1 and 40 age- and gender-matched healthy controls were enrolled. A saliva sample was obtained to measure flow rate of saliva, buffering capacity, potential of hydrogen (pH), and bacterial counts. Oral examination and dental caries were recorded using Decayed, Missing, and Filled Teeth (dmft/DMFT) indices for primary/permanent teeth. Results: Children with DM1 showed higher DMFT scores with a mean of 3.5 compared to 2.8 in healthy children. The differences between both groups were not statistically significant ( Conclusion: Children with DM1 showed remarkably lower caries experience in primary teeth and lower buffering capacity compared to healthy children.
