Association between serum HE4 and poor periodontal health in adult women.
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesThe aim of this study is to explore the association between serum human epididymal protein (HE4) levels and poor periodontal health. MATERIALS AND
methodsData used in our study from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2001-2002 and Gene Expression Omnibus database (GSE10334 and GSE16134). Periodontitis category was defined by the 2017 classification scheme based on clinical periodontal parameters. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to explore the relationship between serum HE4 levels and the risk of periodontitis. GSEA analysis was performed to investigate the function of HE4.
resultsA total of 1715 adult women over the age of 30 were included in our study. Compared with the lowest tertile, individuals in the highest tertile of HE4 levels were more likely to be Stage III/IV periodontitis (OR
conclusionsSerum HE4 is positively associated with poor periodontal health in adult women. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Patients with high serum HE4 levels are more likely to have Stage III/IV periodontitis. HE4 has the potential to be used as a biomarker to predict the severity of periodontitis.
