Association between social determinants of health and periodontitis: a population-based study.
Article in BMC public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundThe association between socioeconomic status and periodontitis is intricate. This research examines how social determinants of health relate to periodontitis in U.S. adults, an area that has not been thoroughly studied.
methodsThis study utilized data from the 2009-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). During each survey cycle, data on self-reported Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) were collected, encompassing employment, family income, food security, education, healthcare access, health insurance, housing instability, and marital status (married or cohabiting). Periodontitis was classified based on Eke's 2012 criteria. The relationship between SDoH and periodontitis was examined using multivariable logistic regression models.
resultsThis study involved 10,714 participants (mean age 52.01 ± 14.30 years), with 49.37% male and 50.63% female. The average SDoH score was 2.64 ± 2.00, and the prevalence of periodontitis was 46.60%. The fully adjusted logistic regression model revealed a positive association between SDoH and periodontitis (OR = 1.28; 95% CI, 1.24-1.32, P < 0.001).
conclusionsAdverse social determinants of health are associated with an increased risk of periodontitis among US adults.
