Efficacy of scaling and root planing with and without adjunct Nd:YAG laser therapy on glucose control and periodontal microecological imbalance in periodontitis patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Clinical oral investigations, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveThe study aims to determine the effects of Nd:YAG laser-assisted with subgingival scaling and root planing (SRP) treatment on glucose control and the dynamic changes of subgingival microbiome in periodontitis with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MATERIALS AND
methodsTwenty-two patients were split into Nd:YAG group (n = 11) and SRP group (n = 11). Patients in the Nd:YAG group received SRP and auxiliary Nd:YAG laser treatment; patients in the SRP group received SRP treatment only. Periodontal tissue inflammation and glycemic control were assessed and analyzed during the treatment period and the changes of subgingival microbiome were analyzed by full-length 16S rRNA sequencing.
resultsAfter 3 months of treatment, PD and CAL values improved significantly in the Nd:YAG group compared to the SRP group. BOP in both groups improved significantly after treatment. FPG levels in the Nd:YAG group were significantly reduced after treatment. Porphyromonas and Porphyromonadaceae were enriched in the Nd:YAG group at baseline, and Fusobacteriota, Fusobacteriia, Fusobacteriales, Leptotrichiaceae, and Leptotrichia were enriched after treatment.
conclusionNd:YAG laser-assisted SRP therapy has additional benefits in improving periodontal tissue inflammation and blood glucose control in periodontitis patients with T2DM compared with SRP therapy alone and there was a trend towards a decrease in disease-associated taxa and an increase in health-associated taxa following auxiliary Nd:YAG laser treatment. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The effects of Nd:YAG laser-assisted SRP treatment on inflammation, glucose control, and subgingival microbiome in periodontitis patients with T2DM were elucidated, and new ideas for the treatment of T2DM periodontitis were provided.
