Profiles of oral microbiome associated with nasogastric tube feeding.
Article in Journal of oral microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Background: Dysbiosis of oral microbiome causes chronic diseases including dental caries and periodontitis, which frequently affect older patient populations. Severely disabled individuals with impaired swallowing functions may require nutritional supply via nasogastric (NG) tubes, further impacting their oral condition and possibly microbial composition. However, little is known about the effect of NG tube on oral microbes and its potential ramification. Methods: By using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, we characterized the tongue microbiome of 27 patients fed with NG tubes and 26 others fed orally. Results: The microbial compositions of NG-tube and oral-feeding patients were substantially different, with more Gram-negative aerobes enriched in the presence of NG tube. Specifically, NG-tube patients presented more opportunistic pathogens like Conclusion: We present a systematic, high-throughput profiling of oral microbiome with regard to long-term NG tube feeding among the older patient population.
