Anemia, hematinic deficiencies, hyperhomocysteinemia, and gastric parietal cell antibody positivity in oral lichen planus patients with or without microcytosis.
Article in Journal of dental sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background/purpose: Microcytosis is defined as having mean corpuscular volume (MCV) < 80 fL. This study evaluated whether 78 oral lichen planus (OLP) patients with microcytosis (microcytosis/OLP patients) and 510 OLP patients without microcytosis (non-microcytosis/OLP patients) had higher frequencies of anemia, hematinic deficiencies, hyperhomocysteinemia, and serum gastric parietal cell antibody (GPCA) positivity than 588 healthy control subjects. Materials and methods: Complete blood count and serum iron, vitamin B12, folic acid, homocysteine, and GPCA levels in 78 microcytosis/OLP patients, 510 non-microcytosis/OLP patients, and 588 healthy control subjects were measured and compared. Results: We found that 71.8 %, 46.2 %, 10.3 %, 0.0 %, 18.0 %, and 20.5 % of 78 microcytosis/OLP patients and 18.0 %, 12.4 %, 10.2 %, 1.4 %, 21.6 %, and 24.1 % of 510 non-microcytosis/OLP patients had blood hemoglobin, serum iron, vitamin B12, and folic acid deficiencies, hyperhomocysteinemia, and serum GPCA positivity, respectively. Both 78 microcytosis/OLP patients and 510 non-microcytosis/OLP patients had significantly higher frequencies of blood hemoglobin, serum iron and vitamin B12 deficiencies, hyperhomocysteinemia, and serum GPCA positivity than 588 healthy control subjects (all Conclusion: We conclude that our 78 microcytosis/OLP patients and 510 non-microcytosis/OLP patients have significantly higher frequencies of anemia, serum iron and vitamin B12 deficiencies, hyperhomocysteinemia, and serum GPCA positivity than 588 healthy control subjects. Moreover, 78 microcytosis/OLP patients also have significantly higher frequencies of blood hemoglobin and serum iron deficiencies than 510 non-microcytosis/OLP patients.
