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

purposeTo investigate the function of the Systemic Inflammation Response Index (SIRI) in the association of Healthy Eating Index (HEI) 2020 in patients with periodontitis risk. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis study utilised data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2009 to 2014, including participants's oral examination results, dietary records, and levels of inflammatory markers. The study employed HEI-2020 as the independent variable and periodontitis as the dependent variable, using weighted logistic regression analysis to examine the association between HEI-2020 and periodontitis. Additionally, restricted cubic splines (RCS) were employed to further explore the non-linear association between the two. Mediation analysis was conducted to investigate the role of SIRI in the association between HEI-2020 and periodontitis.

results3829 (34.5%) of the 9569 patients were diagnosed with periodontitis. In the weighted logistics regression model, HEI-2020 and the risk of periodontitis showed a statistically significant negative association (OR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, p 0.001). The findings of the RCS curve showed a linear correlation (pnon-linear=0.684) between the risk of periodontitis and HEI-2020. With a mediation proportion of 9.82% (p 0.001), the findings of the mediation study indicated that SIRI partially mediated the relationship between HEI-2020 and periodontitis.

conclusionHEI-2020 and periodontitis risk are statistically significantly negatively correlated, and SIRI is a major mediating factor in this relationship. The study results may help clinicians better understand how a healthy diet impacts the risk of periodontal disease and identify the mediating role of SIRI in this association. This knowledge can guide personalised dietary and inflammation management strategies, enhancing oral and overall health by preventing and managing periodontal issues effectively.
