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

Background: Specific bacterial species in the oral cavity contribute to cerebral hemorrhage and microbleeds. The relationship between oral bacterial flora and asymptomatic brain lesions (ABL) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate this relationship in a healthy Japanese cohort. Methods: This cross-sectional study included participants who underwent health examinations at our Brain Dock facility between October 2020 and March 2021. The oral microbiomes of participants with and without ABL were compared using magnetic resonance imaging. To extensively assess the oral bacterial flora, the differences in genes and species compositions between the ABL and noBL (without brain lesions) groups were statistically evaluated via extensive analysis using 16S rRNA gene-based cloning. Results: Among 143 patients, 48.3 % had ABL. In the univariate analyses, Conclusions: The elevation of
