Domiciliary Dental Care for Medically Compromised Patients in Aging and Super-aged Societies: Policy and Education.
Article in Aging and disease, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Domiciliary dental care (DDC) is a specialized dental service provided at patients' residences, especially for medically compromised patients. The importance of DDC has been highlighted in aging and super-aged societies. Confronted with burdens of a super-aged society, governmental efforts have promoted DDC in Taiwan. To provoke awareness of DDC in healthcare professionals, a series of continuing medical education (CME) lessons on DDC for dentists and nurse practitioners were organized between 2020 and 2021 at a tertiary medical center and demonstrating center of DDC in Taiwan, during which 66.7% of participants were very satisfied. Through political and educational efforts of the government and medical centers, an increasing number of healthcare professionals participating in DDC was observed, including both those in hospitals and those who were primary care practitioners. CME modules may promote DDC and improve the accessibility to dental care for medically compromised patients.
