A Systematic Review of the Oral Health Status of Hemophilic Patients.
Review in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundHemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder, with the most well-known forms being hemophilia A and hemophilia B. It is important for patients with hemophilia to maintain good oral health and prevent oral diseases because of their increased propensity to bleed. Few large-scale studies exist on the oral health status of patients with hemophilia.
methodsIn our search across three databases (Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed), only 14 articles about the oral health status of hemophilic patients were extracted. Oral health status was classified into caries status, periodontal status, and oral hygiene status and compared with that of a healthy group.
resultsIn total, 13 of the 14 papers investigated the dental caries status of hemophilia patients, and the most common report was "no difference" compared to healthy subjects (7 papers, 53.8%), followed by "poor" (4 papers, 30.8%). Periodontal status was investigated in 6 papers, of which 4 (66.7%) reported that the status of hemophilia patients was "poor" compared to that of healthy controls. Oral hygiene status was investigated in 12 studies, with 7 studies (58.3%) reporting it to be "poor" in hemophilia patients compared to healthy controls, followed by 3 studies (25.0%) reporting "no difference".
conclusionsOral hygiene status is associated with other items, such as caries and periodontal disease, and it is paramount in maintaining good oral health in hemophilic patients. In addition, regular dental visits improve oral hygiene, resulting in the prevention of oral disease. It is important to increase awareness of this information among patients with hemophilia and for medical and dental professionals to cooperate to improve patients' oral health status, with the aim of improving their quality of life.
