Self-Perceived Oral Health Related to Eating Disorders-A Cross-Sectional Questionnaire Study.
Article in International journal of dental hygiene, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesTo investigate oral problems experienced by patients with eating disorder (ED).
methodsA cross-sectional study where ED patients (n = 48) at two Swedish specialised clinics filled out a questionnaire about perceived oral health problems and habits, and specific behaviours related to ED.
resultsThe majority exhibited poor eating and drinking habits, f.i. drinking light drinks (63%), and most of them were on medication (71%). The most common problems were hypersensitive teeth (three out of five) and perceived dryness of the mouth (almost four out of five). Likewise, pain in the teeth (38%) and the jaws (46%) was frequent. About one-third had been binge eating and/or vomiting in recent weeks and these behaviours were associated with pain in the teeth and snacking. Almost two out of three participants were concerned about informing their dentist or dental hygienist about their vomiting.
conclusionsThe ED patients in this study experienced oral problems and exhibited many risk behaviours regarding oral health. Both dental staff and ED staff who meet ED patients should be aware of the risk of oral health problems and preventive measures should be taken.
