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

objectivesThis study aims to explore the status quo of health literacy and quality of life in elderly patients with chronic periodontitis and determine their correlation to understand the influencing factors of health literacy and quality of life.

methodsA total of 150 elderly patients with chronic periodontitis were investigated using the general information questionnaire, Oral Health Literacy-Adult Questionnaire, and Oral Health Impact Profile for Chronic Periodontitis.

resultsThe total scores of health literacy and quality of life of elderly patients with chronic periodontitis were 6.59±4.11 and 29.25±9.42, respectively. The total score of health literacy was negatively correlated with the total score of quality of life (

conclusionsThe health literacy level of elderly patients with chronic periodontitis is insufficient, and their quality of life needs to be improved. Improving the health literacy of patients is an effective way to improve their quality of life. Nursing staff must formulate corresponding health education strategies to improve the health literacy of patients and improve their quality of life.
