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

This study aimed to evaluate the association between substance use during pregnancy (SUDP) and dental caries considering the Tooth Development Hypothesis and the Behavioral Hypothesis. This is a Brazilian cohort study conducted on 865 children (12-36 months). Exposure to SUDP was the latent variable and consisted of the use of alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drugs. The dependent variable was the number of dental caries lesions according to the Nyvad criteria. Structural equation modeling was used for analysis, estimating the standardized coefficient (SC) in two models: traditional (1) and with bias-corrected bootstrap estimates (2). The models were adjusted for socioeconomic status (SES), child's age, maternal age, symptoms of minor psychiatric disorders, sugar consumption, feeding, developmental defects of enamel, and gingival bleeding on brushing (GBoB) (α = 5%). SUDP did not affect dental caries. SES (SC
