Oral health-related quality of life in patients with periodontitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in oral 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
Objective: This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the impact of periodontitis on Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) using the OHIP-14 questionnaire. A quantitative meta-analysis was conducted to estimate the average effect size, taking into account the characteristics of periodontitis and the features of control groups. Additionally, associations between OHRQoL and periodontitis were explored based on participant demographics and clinical factors. Methods: We systematically searched the PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases up to March 8, 2024. Studies included in the analysis assessed OHRQoL in patients with periodontitis (exposed group) compared to non-periodontitis individuals (non-exposed control group). A valid periodontitis diagnosis required Clinical Attachment Loss (CAL) and Pocket Probing Depth (PPD) assessments during full-mouth clinical examinations. The choice of meta-analysis model was based on an assessment of heterogeneity. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the tool developed by The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute ( Results: Nine studies, encompassing 2,287 individuals, met the inclusion criteria. Periodontitis significantly affected the mean OHIP-14 total scores compared to controls [Weighted Mean Differences WMD random = 6.11 (95% CI: 4.23, 7.99), Conclusions: Our findings confirm that periodontitis significantly impairs OHRQoL, with potential associations related to disease severity and sex. However, the limited availability of studies with matched control groups and poor data reporting quality constrains a more comprehensive assessment.
