Assessment of selective salivary properties and taste perception in subjects with oral submucous fibrosis - A case-control study.

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 present study was conducted to evaluate and compare selective salivary properties and taste perception in subjects with and without oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), since OSMF affects the properties of saliva and may lead to decline in the quality of life. Materials and method: Eighty subjects were enrolled in the study and equally divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of OSMF, for estimating, analysing and comparing the salivary flow rate (SFR), pH and taste perception using Modified Schirmer strip, pH strip and taste solutions respectively, in both groups. Chi-square test and unpaired Results: Compared to the control group, a statistically significant decrease in SFR was noted among stage 4 OSMF subjects. Alkaline pH was present in OSMF group, regardless of the stage. Taste alterations were present in relation to sweet, salty and sour taste in subjects with OSMF. Conclusion: There is a marked decrease in SFR, alteration in salivary pH and significant taste changes such as hypogeusia, dysgeusia and ageusia in sweet, salt and sour tastes in subjects with OSMF.
