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

Purpose: Older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are at a high risk for oral health decline. To address this, we designed an intervention to improve oral health behaviors specifically for elderly individuals with MCI. Here we describe the protocol for a study with the following aims: to enhance oral health behaviors through online education tailored to the cognitive load of older adults and to maintain or delay cognitive decline. Patients and Methods: This randomized, parallel, single-blind controlled trial will evaluate the effectiveness of an oral health behavior intervention based on an online interactive platform (e-COM[OH]) in older adults with MCI. The participants will be randomly assigned to two groups. The intervention group will receive oral health behavior training through an online platform consisting of four modules: Games, Health Knowledge, Health Skills, and Symptom Reporting Center. The control group will follow the hospital's official account and receive general oral health education. The primary outcome will be the oral health behavior score, assessed using an oral health behavior questionnaire. The secondary outcomes will include social support, perceived stress, cognitive level, oral health-related quality of life, and oral health status. Participant enrollment will begin in April 2024 and is expected to be completed in November 2024. Conclusions: This trial will evaluate whether the e-COM(OH) WeChat mini-program is suitable to improve the oral health behaviors and cognitive functions of older adults with MCI. If its effectiveness is validated and e-COM(OH) is deemed acceptable, appropriate, and feasible, it could serve as a strategic approach to address oral health issues and prevent cognitive decline in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. Trial Registration: The trial has been registered on the www.chictr.org.cn registration platform on 19 April 2024 (registration number: ChiCTR2400083250).
