Associations Between Socioeconomic, Spatial and Educational Factors and Midlife Periodontal Disease Risk: Evidence From 'High School and Beyond'.
Article in Journal of clinical periodontology, 2025. 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
backgroundPeriodontal disease (PD) is a prevalent, preventable and treatable oral infection associated with substantial morbidity globally. There is little information from population-representative cohort studies about the sociodemographic, educational and other early life factors that stratify PD risk.
methodsWe used data from the U.S. 'High School and Beyond' (HS&B:80) study, which has followed a nationally representative sample of 26,820 people from high school in 1980 through midlife in 2021. Data from the 1980s include information about education, early life circumstances, spatial location and demographic attributes. Data from 13,080 sample members who responded in 2021 include indicators of self-reported PD diagnosis.
resultsPeople with higher degrees and course grades have a lower risk of midlife PD. Rural adolescents and those who attended private schools are also at lower risk. We find little evidence of heterogeneity in correlates of midlife PD by gender or race/ethnicity.
conclusionsThe quantity and characteristics of people's schooling and their location of residence are associated with midlife PD.
