Risk factors for relapse of pediatric PNS based on oral health problems: a prediction model.
Article in BMC oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveBased on an oral health survey at primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS) onset, a prediction model was developed to evaluate the impact of oral health on PNS relapse by identifying risk factors.
methodsThis retrospective study included 112 children aged 3–6 years with PNS receiving standardized treatment at Xi’an Children’s Hospital (2020–2024). Oral health assessments (dmft, periapical fistula, PLI, GI) and clinical data were analyzed. Logistic regression identified predictors of relapse over 2 years.
resultsThe study population included 112 participants. Dental caries prevalence was 87.50% (mean dmft 6.34 ± 4.60), with periapical fistula observed in 13.39% of cases. Additionally, 75.89% exhibited a PLI > 1, 31.25% had a GI > 1, and 48.21% received oral treatment during the observation period. Independent predictors of PNS relapse included dmft (OR = 1.26, 95% CI 1.06–1.55, P = 0.014), time to initial remission (OR = 1.22, 95% CI 1.07–1.44, P = 0.008), ALB (OR = 0.49, 95% CI 0.32–0.67, P < 0.001), 24-hour urine protein (OR = 1.08, 95% CI 1.04–1.14, P = 0.001), and TC (OR = 1.84, 95% CI 1.12–3.47, P = 0.032).
conclusionOral health, particularly higher dmft, is significantly associated with PNS relapse, warranting further mechanistic investigation.
