Impact of severity of bronchial asthma on oral health in children.
Article 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 2 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: The relationship between asthma and oral health has garnered increasing attention due to overlapping risk factors, such as altered immune responses and behavioral changes. Objective: To assess and compare the oral health status of children with bronchial asthma to their healthy siblings and unrelated healthy controls in the Qassim region, KSA. Materials and methods: 180 participants were included in the present study and were divided into 3 groups as follows: Group A: 60 children with confirmed diagnosis of long-standing bronchial asthma, group B: 60 healthy subjects who served as a negative control group, group C: 60 healthy siblings of asthmatic children served as a Sibling control group (participants had the same dietary patterns and socioeconomic standards as participants of group A). Dental caries were assessed using the Decayed, Missing, and Filled Teeth (dmft/DMFT) index, which is a standardized and widely used measure of Decayed, Missing, and Filled Teeth in dental epidemiology. Gingival health was evaluated via the Gingival Index (GI). Results: Conclusion: Bronchial asthma has direct and indirect effect (related to drug therapy) on oral health. Dealing with some modifiable cofactors could be helpful in improving oral health in children with asthma.
