The Oral Health Condition of Patients on Hemodialysis at a Tertiary Healthcare Facility in Eastern Nepal.
Article in International journal of dentistry, 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
Objectives: This study was done to compare the oral health of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients on hemodialysis to healthy individuals and to assess the effect of the duration of dialysis on oral health. Materials and Methods: A comparative cross-sectional study was conducted among purposively selected 54 cases undergoing dialysis and 54 apparently healthy controls. Caries experience and periodontal status were recorded under similar examination conditions and compared between cases and controls. The correlation between oral health and the duration of dialysis was assessed. A Results: The mean age of the participants was 47.09 ± 12.23 years. Median caries experience among cases and controls was two (0-26) and three (0-15), respectively ( Conclusion: Significant differences exist between the periodontal health of patients undergoing dialysis compared to healthy controls. Longitudinal studies are required to check the causal effect of CKD on periodontitis.
