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

backgroundPeriodontal diseases are prevalent oral conditions, particularly burdensome in developing countries. This study examines global and BRICS countries' changing trends in periodontal diseases incidence from 1992 to 2021, focusing on associations with age, period, and cohort effects. MATERIALS AND

methodsA cross-sectional burden of disease study was conducted. Data on the total population and periodontal diseases cases, all-age incidence rate, age-standardized incidence rate, and relative change in periodontal diseases incidence from 1992 to 2021 within BRICS were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease study (GBD) 2021. Furthermore, the Age-Period-Cohort (APC) model with an intrinsic estimator (IE) algorithm was employed to assess the effects of net drift, local drift, age, period, and cohort on the incidence rates of periodontal diseases over specific time periods.

resultsGlobally, the new cases of periodontal diseases in 2021 were reported at 8961 thousand (95% uncertainty intervals: 7907, 10101), reflecting a 71.21% increase compared to 1992. In 2021, the age-standardized incidence rate of periodontal diseases across the BRICS countries ranged from 600.50 (95% uncertainty intervals: 481.27, 763.54) per 100,000 population in South Africa to 1268.96 (95% uncertainty intervals: 1119.16, 1409.94) per 100,000 population in India. The age distribution of periodontal diseases cases was relatively stable globally and among BRICS countries from 1992 to 2021. Countries exhibited similar age-effect patterns, with increasing risk with increasing age, and varying period and cohort effects, indicative of differential control measures and temporal incidence trends.

conclusionsBrazil, India, and China experienced an increasing trend in the age-standardized incidence rates of periodontal diseases from 1992 to 2021, in contrast to the declining trends observed in the Russian Federation and South Africa. Furthermore, the APC analysis indicates the intricate dynamics of age, period, and cohort influences on periodontal diseases incidence. Distinct national trajectories, shaped by varying socioeconomic, cultural, and historical frameworks, highlight that public health initiatives must be meticulously customized to mitigate and control the periodontal diseases burden across diverse settings.
