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

objectivesOral diseases, such as dental caries, periodontitis, and oral cancers, are highly prevalent worldwide. Many oral diseases are typically associated with bacterial infections or the proliferation of malignant cells, and they are usually located superficially. MATERIALS AND

methodsArticles were retrieved from PubMed/Medline, Web of Science. All studies focusing on stimuli-responsive materials in oral diseases were included and carefully evaluated.

resultsStimulus-responsive materials are innovative materials that selectively undergo structural changes and trigger drug release based on shifts at the molecular level, such as changes in pH, electric field, magnetic field, or light in the surrounding environment. These changes lead to alterations in the properties of the materials at the macro- or microscopic level. Consequently, stimuli-responsive materials are particularly suitable for treating superficial site diseases and have found extensive applications in antibacterial and anticancer therapies. These characteristics make them convenient and effective for addressing oral diseases.

conclusionsThis review aimed to summarize the classification, mechanism of action, and application of stimuli-responsive materials in the treatment of oral diseases, point out the existing limitations, and speculate the prospects for clinical applications. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Our findings may provide useful information of stimuli-responsive materials in oral diseases for dental clinicians.
