Association between life's essential 8 and periodontitis: evidence from NHANES 2009-2014.
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 3 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
objectivesTo explore the relationship between Life's Essential 8 (LE-8) and periodontitis, specifically focusing on identifying the specific factors within LE-8 significantly linked to periodontitis. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis cross-sectional study utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2009-2014), involving 8160 participants with available LE-8 metrics and periodontal examination results. The LE-8 metrics, encompassing diet, physical activity, nicotine exposure, sleep health, body mass index, blood liquids, blood glucose, and blood pressure were collected for analysis. Periodontitis diagnosis followed CDC-AAP guidelines.
results4049 subjects with periodontitis (mean age, 54.80 years; 57.93% male) and 4111 subjects without periodontitis (mean age, 48.66 years; 42.61% male) were included in this study. Periodontitis subjects had lower total LE-8 scores (64.62 [63.94, 65.30]) than periodontitis-free subjects (71.34 [70.65, 72.03]). The risk of periodontitis risk significantly decreased with increasing LE-8 score. Specific factors within LE-8, including avoidance of nicotine (Adjusted OR = 0.90 [0.88, 0.92]), healthy sleep (Adjusted OR = 0.95 [0.92, 0.99]), and healthy levels of blood glucose (Adjusted OR = 0.94 [0.90, 0.98]) were negatively associated with periodontitis presences.
conclusionsHigher scores in life's essential 8 metrics, particularly in nicotine exposure, sleep health, and blood glucose, may benefit periodontal health. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Adopting a healthy lifestyle reduces the risk of periodontitis. Avoiding smoking, sufficient sleep, and stable blood glucose are linked to lower periodontitis risk. Healthcare professionals should advise individuals with lower life's essential 8 scores to prioritize oral care.
