Oleogel-based drug delivery for the treatment of periodontitis: current strategies and future perspectives.
Review in F1000Research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Periodontitis is the chronic inflammation of tooth-supporting tissues that leads to loss of tooth support if untreated. Conventional therapy for periodontitis (mechanical removal of microbial biofilm and oral hygiene enforcement) is augmented by anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory drugs. These drugs are frequently delivered locally into the periodontal pocket for maximum efficiency and minimum adverse effects. The potential of oleogels for periodontal drug delivery has been discussed and further, the future scope of oleogel-based drug delivery systems in dentistry. An oleogel-based local drug delivery system offers several advantages over other systems. Superior mechanical properties (firmness and compressibility), muco-adhesion, shear thinning, thixotropy, controlled drug release and the ability to incorporate water-insoluble drugs clearly distinguish and highlight the potential of oleogels as periodontal local drug delivery systems. Bigels can combine the qualities of both hydrogels and oleogels to provide a more promising option for drug delivery. However, there is limited evidence concerning oleogels as local drug delivery agents in periodontics. Further studies are needed to discern the clinical efficacy of oleogel-based drug delivery systems.
