Assessment of differences in stress markers of edentulous patients rehabilitated with complete dentures.
Article in Medical journal, Armed Forces India. 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
Background: Biomarkers can aid in determining the success of complete denture. Fewer studies evaluated the biomarkers in edentulous patients. This can aid in planning of better qualitative care for edentulous patients. The study compared the quantities of nitric oxide (NO), salivary alpha amylase (SAA) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) before and after denture insertion in complete denture patients. Methods: The study involved 25 edentulous patients. The saliva samples were obtained from patients prior, 1 h, and 1 week after denture insertion. Standardized procedure was followed in sample management, transportation and storing. The investigations varied with the biomarkers. SAA was estimated by enzymatic assay. TBARS by lipid peroxidation and NO was assessed by Griess reaction. The obtained data were tabled and statistically analyzed. Results: The results displayed variation in the level of markers between before and after denture insertion. The mean levels of SAA decreased from 8.26 ± 1.32 nm/ml to 3.44 ± 1.25 nm/ml in following denture insertion. The mean of TBARS and NO increased after denture insertion to 14.33 ± 4.72 nm/ml and NO 22.92 ± 5.79 ng/ml. The results were statistically significant with p < 0.05. Conclusion: The study concluded that denture insertion decreased the levels of psychological stress marker (SAA) and increased the Oxidative stress marker (TBARS, NO).
