Oral hygiene behaviors and periodontitis among patients with chronic diseases and its impact on tooth loss and oral health-related quality of life: a cross-sectional study of data from the ComPaRe e-cohort.
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
objectivesLittle is known about oral hygiene habits of patients suffering from chronic diseases. This study aims to describe oral hygiene behavior (OHB) in terms of tooth brushing and professional scaling frequency among patients with chronic diseases. Secondarily, it aims to assess the association between OHB and periodontitis, tooth loss, and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). MATERIALS AND
methodsThis is a cross-sectional analysis of data of adult participants in the ComPaRe e-cohort. Participants were classified into having good, moderate, and poor OHB according to self-reported frequency of toothbrushing and professional tooth scaling. Periodontitis was assessed using the PEriodontal Screening Score (PESS). Weighted binary regression models were used to estimate the association between OHB and the following outcomes: (i) periodontitis; (ii) number of missing teeth; and (iii) OHRQoL based on the Oral Health Impact Profile-14.
resultsOverall, 8553 patients were included in the analyses (52.9% females, mean age of 56.3 ± 17 years). Of these, 2907 (34%), 3953 (46%) and 1693 (20%) were considered as having good, moderate, and poor OHB, respectively. Over half (54.1%) of the patients had a PESS ≥ 5 suggestive for severe periodontitis. Moderate OHB was associated with lower odds of PESS ≥ 5 compared to poor OHB (Adjusted Odds Ratio, OR = 0.81 [95%CI: 0.70-0.92]). Good and moderate OHB were significantly associated with lower odds of ≥ 10 missing teeth (OR = 0.26 [95%CI: 0.21-0.33] and OR = 0.47 [95%CI: 0.4-0.56], respectively) and better OHRQoL than poor OHB.
conclusionsAlthough, most of patients with chronic diseases reported to have good or moderate OHB, severe periodontitis is highly prevalent among this patient population in France. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This study describes OHB in a representative sample of patients suffering from one or more chronic diseases and provides an estimate of the prevalence of self-reported severe periodontitis, missing teeth, and OHRQoL.
