The influence of habitual tooth brushing frequency on individuals diagnosed with coronary artery disease.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a prevalent and high-mortality condition globally. The awareness regarding adequate oral care in China was insufficient. This study investigates the outcomes of CAD patients in southwest China based on their tooth brushing frequency. A total of 841 CAD patients were selected from a cohort of 32,709 residents. Over a four-year follow-up period, the incidence of three-point major adverse cardiovascular events (3P-MACEs) was evaluated. The results indicated that the hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for 3P-MACEs among the three groups of tooth brushing frequency (twice, once, and thrice daily) were: reference, 1.61 (1.09-2.37) (p = 0.017), and 0.49 (0.15-1.62) (p = 0.241). Patients who brushed their teeth only once a day had a 1.71 (1.18-2.46) times higher risk compared to those who brushed twice or more daily (p = 0.004). In conclusion, insufficient tooth brushing frequency appears to be associated with a higher risk of adverse outcomes among CAD patients.
