The Interplay Between Periodontitis, Caries and Dental Restorations in an Adult Population.
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 4 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 explore the local co-occurrence patterns between caries and periodontal parameters (probing depth [PD] and clinical attachment loss [CAL]) and assess whether restorations/caries are spatially associated with poorer periodontal outcomes in a German adult population. MATERIALS AND
methodsCross-sectional data from the German Oral Health Study (DMS V, 2014), consisting of 966 adults (35-44 years old) and 1042 seniors (65-75 years old), were analysed. Periodontal examinations were conducted on 12 index teeth (three surfaces), while caries status was evaluated across all tooth surfaces. The relationship between periodontal health and caries was analysed using hierarchical regression models.
resultsStrong associations were found between filled surfaces and increased PD and CAL at both tooth and surface levels. In seniors, crowns and fillings were associated with higher PD (β = 0.330-0.372) and CAL (β = 0.207-0.368). Surface-level analyses also showed that early caries lesions were correlated with worse periodontal outcomes (PD: β = 0.224-0.591; CAL: β = 0.167-0.744).
conclusionThe findings suggest that early caries lesions and restorations may be linked to poorer periodontal health. These associations were consistent across different surfaces and age groups, highlighting a potential spatial link between caries and periodontal disease.
