Review in Theranostics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 40 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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

Saliva contains a diverse array of biomarkers indicative of various diseases. Saliva testing has been a major advancement towards non-invasive point-of-care diagnosis with clinical significance. However, there are challenges associated with salivary diagnosis from sample treatment and standardization. This review highlights the biomarkers in saliva and their role in identifying relevant diseases. It provides an overview and discussion about the current practice of saliva collection and processing, and advancements in saliva detection systems from
