Personalized Treatment of Periodontitis in a Patient with McArdle's Disease: The Benefits from Probiotics.
Article in Case reports in dentistry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Introduction: McArdle's disease is a severe glycogen storage disease characterized by intolerance to exercise; patients have a syndrome of muscle intolerance to stress, associated with myalgia, cramps, fatigue, and muscle weakness. Periodontal disease is a multifactorial pathology of the supporting tissues of the teeth: one of the main factors is the formation of bacterial biofilm; its control favors the prevention and the maintenance of good health of the oral cavity; and some systemic pathologies can worsen the periodontal disease and hinder its therapy. This case report concerns a woman with McArdle's disease diagnosed with periodontal disease. Results: After 60 days, the number of pockets was reduced from 82 to 14 overall with PPD ≥ 4 mm and from 50 to 2 pockets with PPD ≥ 5 mm. Full mouth bleeding score (FMBS) increased from 48% to 15% and full mouth plaque score (FMPS) from 73% to 15%. Conclusions: In this case, the use of a correct brushing method combined with the D-BioTECH has reduced the disease state, with the use of probiotics at home to restore and maintain a healthy oral microbiome.
