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

backgroundThe objective of this systematic review was to identify genetic variants of the IL-23, IL-17, IL-23R and IL-17R genes and isoforms and its possible association with increased development of periodontitis and peri-implantitis.

methodsA systematic review was prepared according to the guidelines, registered in the OSF database with the registration number: 10.17605/OSF. IO/X95ZC. The electronic search was performed in four databases: PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar from 1984 until March 15th, 2024. The JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for Case-Control Studies was used to assess the quality of included studies.

resultsEighteen papers with a case-control design were those that ultimately met the eligibility criteria. A total of 3904 individuals (2315 with periodontitis and 90 with peri-implantitis), and 1589 healthy subjects) were studied. The age range of the study population was 14-70 years, with a mean age ± (SD) of 40.43 ± 6.33 years. A total of 28 genetic variants corresponding to the IL-17A (rs 2275913, rs 3819024, rs 10484879) IL-17F (rs 763780), IL-17R (rs 879576) and IL-23R (rs 11209026) genes were analyzed in this study. Six (33.3%) studies found an association between the IL-17A 197 G/A (rs 2275913) genetic variant and peri-implantitis and periodontitis. One study (5.5%) found an association between the IL-17A rs10484879 variant and peri-implantitis and periodontitis.

conclusionSix polymorphisms were evaluated, highlighting rs 2275913 of the cytokine IL-17A in patients with periodontitis or peri-implantitis. Only 50% of studies found an association despite having a small sample. This suggests that other factors such as the degree of disease, systemic diseases and ethnic groups studied may play a role.
