Influence of Diabetes on Periapical Pathology in Treated and Untreated Teeth: A Cross-Sectional Comparison with Non-Diabetic Patients.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The aim of this study was to explore diabetes mellitus type 2 as a risk factor in the prevalence of chronic apical periodontitis (CAP) in untreated and endodontically treated teeth. The second objective was to describe the correlation between the presence of periapical lesions and blood glucose/glycated hemoglobin levels among diabetic (DM) and non-diabetic patients with endodontically treated or untreated teeth with CAP.
