Periodontitis and renal function decline in type 2 diabetes: a prospective cohort study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. 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
This study aimed to investigate the effect of periodontitis on renal function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and to explore the potential underlying pathways. A cohort of 73 patients with poorly controlled T2D who received diabetes care was monitored for six months. The association between the changes in renal function and periodontal parameters at baseline was assessed using regression analysis. Causal mediation analysis was performed to examine the effect of periodontitis on renal function mediated by glycemic control. Of the participants, 57 (78.0%) had stage III or IV periodontitis. Hemoglobin A1c levels improved significantly, from 9.5 ± 1.9% to 7.6 ± 1.4% while estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) declined from 76.8 ± 23.7 to 71.8 ± 21.6 mL/min/1.73 m
