Smoking, tooth loss and oral hygiene practices have significant and site-specific impacts on the microbiome of oral mucosal surfaces: a cross-sectional study.
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 16 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
We investigated bacterial colonisation patterns of healthy mucosa (buccal, tongue, palate and floor of mouth) in a cohort of adults in order to determine how smoking, tooth loss, plaque levels and oral hygiene practices impacted on mucosal colonisation. A total of 322 swabs were recovered from 256 participants, of whom 46% were current smokers. We analysed colonization by sequencing the V1-V3 regions of the 16S rRNA gene. Palate and tongue microbiomes generally exhibited greater biodiversity than buccal and floor of mouth. Although
