Characteristics of oral health of patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia: case reports and literature review.
Review in BDJ open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundOral health is impaired in X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), resulting in delayed dental development, malocclusion, and radiographic abnormalities. This study investigates the oral manifestations in Slovenian XLH patients, focusing on enamel and dentin abnormalities and a literature review of spontaneous periapical abscesses in XLH cases.
objectivesTo report XLH patients with specific oral signs and symptoms, histological analysis of affected teeth, and review of reported cases of XLH patients with spontaneous periapical abscesses.
methodsCase reports: Seven XLH patients from the National Registry of Patients with Rare Diseases underwent a detailed oral examination, including X-ray reviews. The patients who were expected to have tooth exfoliation or extraction were asked to donate their teeth for histological analysis by scanning electron microscopy. LITERATURE SEARCH: A literature search of four electronic databases and a manual bibliography search aimed to identify documented cases of XLH with periapical abscesses up to January 21, 2024. Inclusion criteria were confirmed XLH patients with periapical abscesses in English peer-reviewed publications.
resultsTooth samples from three XLH patients showed reduced dentin mineralisation, affecting one-third to one-half of the outer dentin. Inadequate mineralisation, uneven dentin tubules, and cracks and chipping in the enamel were observed, indicating mineralisation deviations. Similar cracks extended into the dentin and were also present in the root of the examined tooth. Based on the content of the 75 items identified in the search, spontaneous abscesses are not uncommon in patients with XLH.
conclusionsXLH significantly affects patients' lives and requires lifelong treatment. Dental examinations consistently revealed oral problems, including malocclusion. Histological analysis confirmed structural changes, especially in the dentin. Despite continued treatment, XLH patients may have an increased risk of oral pathologies. Further research is needed to understand the impact of XLH and its treatment on dental health.
