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

Background: Perturbations of the gut microbiota in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have been extensively characterised, but changes to the oral microbiome remain understudied. This study aimed to evaluate the oral microbiome of adults with IBD and of matched controls. Methods: Saliva samples and data were obtained from a Canadian population cohort ( Results: Alpha diversity was significantly lower in participants with IBD than controls in unadjusted models and many remained significant after adjusting for covariates. Significant differences in some beta diversity metrics between participants with IBD and controls were found, although these did not remain significant when adjusted for covariates. Ten genera were significantly differentially abundant between cases and controls. Conclusion: These results showcase changes in oral microbial diversity and composition in those living with IBD and highlight the potential of using the salivary microbiome as a biomarker for screening or monitoring IBD.
