The Interplay Between Lifestyle and Oral/Faecal Microbial Profiles Among Periodontal Disease Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Journal of clinical periodontology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
aimTo characterise periodontal and faecal microbiomes of individuals with periodontal health (PH) and diseases, and evaluate associations with periodontal, sociodemographic, anthropometric, nutritional and lifestyle factors. MATERIALS AND
methodsDental biofilm and faecal samples from individuals (n = 24/group) with PH, gingivitis (GG) and periodontitis (PE) were sequenced (16S rRNA). Anthropometric data and questionnaires on demographics, lifestyle, diet and intestinal habits were collected. Data were statistically analysed (p < 0.05).
resultsGG and PE groups showed higher age, BMI, waist/abdominal circumferences and trans-fat intake and lower selenium and vitamin E intake compared to PH. Individuals with PE had higher hip circumference and lower income, education and intake of iron as well as vitamins A and B9. PE microbiomes (oral and faecal) showed distinct compositions, with the highest number of unique oral species. Faecal richness was lower in PE and GG compared to PH. Specific microbial taxa correlated with periodontal status and host factors.
conclusionPeriodontal and faecal microbiomes vary across periodontal conditions. Discriminant analysis classified 77% of individuals by periodontal status, with key markers for PE including older age, poor dietary quality and distinct microbial oral and faecal signatures. These findings highlight the role of clinical, dietary and microbial factors in periodontal disease profiling.
