Effect of Passive Immunotherapeutics (IgY) on S. Mutans in Caries Active Children 8-11 Years of Age.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Introduction: Dental caries is a multifactorial disease caused by combined effect of host, environment, and microorganism. Mutans Streptococci (MS) is the main microorganism in causing and progression of dental caries. Advances in science and technology led to attempt in managing dental caries by targeting its initiation and delaying its progress. Immunoglobulin Y has proven efficacy in reducing the colonisation of S. Mutans by affecting the adhesion. Aim: Thus the present study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of passive immunisation on S.Mutans levels in caries active children aged 8-11 yrs of age. Materials and methods: Total of 50 children were randomly divided into IgY mouthspray (Test Group) and 0.9% Saline (Control group). Saliva sample were collected and subjected to microbial examination using MSB agar at the end of 30 days of study period. Results: Within the limitations, it can be concluded that IgY mouthspray significantly reduces the adhesion and growth of the causative agent S.Mutans in caries active children. Conclusion: Use of passive immunisation significantly reduces the bacterial overload and thus decreasing the dental caries in high risk children.
