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

This study assessed psychometric properties of the Bosnian language version the Oral Health Impact Profile for Edentulous Patients (OHIP-EDENT), translated from the original English language version of and evaluated the Oral Health-related Quality of Life, in complete denture wearers before and after corrections of dentures. Specialist of dental prosthetic interviewed 117 edentulous patients before and after interventions. All patients had problems with their existing complete acrylic resin dentures. During the first visit, the patients were examined by prosthodontic specialists, who registered the status of the existing acrylic complete dentures and described interventions needed to improve denture quality. The patients were interviewed, and they completed the OHIP-EDENT questionnaire. Each patient was re-examined by a prosthodontic specialist one month after the new complete acrylic dentures had been delivered. This study's basic instrument was the Bosnian language version (B&H) OHIP-EDENT questionnaire. The questionnaire's internal consistency was first assessed by Cronbach alpha coefficient, which was 0.80, and after correcting of dentures 0.76. Significantly lower scores were found in domains of functional limitation (p = 0.019), psychological discomfort (p = 0.010), physical pain (p = 0.003), and handicap (p = 0.041) after old denture corrections, as well as significantly better quality of life (reduced OHIP-EDENT Summary scores; p = 0.027). The student's t test of the OHIP EDENT B&H general and group indexes regarding the patients' conditions after denture interventions showed significant reduction of the general index (p = 0.02) along with reductions of functional limitations (p = 0.019), pain (p = 0.003), physical disabilities (p = 0.15), psychological disability (p = 0.002), and handicap (p = 0.002). The OHIP-EDENT B&H exposed good psychometric properties.
