1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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/purpose: Periodontitis is a chronic multifactorial inflammatory disease with dental plaque accumulation. This study aimed to analyze the association between carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio and periodontitis risk. Materials and methods: In this cross-sectional study, the data of 6470 participants aged ≥30 years with available oral health exam data of periodontal status were collected from NHANES 2009-2014. Participants were divided into no & mild periodontitis group (n = 3309) and moderate & severe periodontitis group (n = 3161). The possible correlation between the carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio and the risk of periodontitis was explored via univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were applied as the effect size. Results: After adjusting for all the confounding factors, carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio <10.89 (OR = 0.82, 95% CI: 0.69-0.97), carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio of 10.89-14.02 (OR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.63-0.87), carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio of 14.03-18.47 (OR = 0.83, 95% CI: 0.71-0.97) were correlated with reduced risk of periodontitis. In people aged ≥65 years, carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio of 10.89-14.02 (OR = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.30-0.95) and carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio of 14.03-18.47 (OR = 0.56, 95% CI: 0.37-0.86) were correlated with reduced risk of periodontitis in comparison with carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio ≥18.48 group. The decreased risk of periodontitis was also found in males with carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio of 10.89-14.02 (OR = 0.69, 95% CI: 0.49-0.97) and carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio of 14.03-18.47 (OR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.56-0.95). In people without diabetes, we found that those with carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio <10.89 (OR = 0.75, 95% CI: 0.61-0.93), carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio of 10.89-14.02 (OR = 0.68, 95% CI: 0.53-0.88) and carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio of 14.03-18.47 (OR = 0.84, 95% CI: 0.70-0.99) were linked with lower risk of periodontitis. Conclusion: Low carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio was associated with decreased risk of periodontitis.
