Assessment of Relation between Periodontal Disease and Macular Degeneration.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 and Aim: Periodontal disease may result in chronic inflammation and bacteremia in some people. The study aimed to evaluate the connection between periodontal disease and macular degeneration. Materials and Methods: The specialist dental surgeon conducted the dental examination using a community periodontal index probe. An ophthalmologist performed the eye examination. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) was identified through specific criteria such as the existence of particular types of drusen and pigmentary abnormalities. Results: Two hundred participants were part of the study. According to the data, factors such as advanced age, limited education, low income, hypertension, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) presence were strongly linked to AMD in all participants. Conclusion: Multiple studies have indicated a connection between periodontitis in the mouth and macular degeneration in individuals under 60 years of age.
