Correlation of Intelligence Quotient and Prevalence of Dental Caries in 5-11-Year-old Orphan Children Using Raven's Colored Progressive Matrices.
Article in International journal of clinical pediatric dentistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Human intelligence is defined as the capacity for complicated cognitive tasks as well as a high degree of drive and awareness. It permits human experience and thought. The most recent understanding of the association between environmental influences and tooth caries, which includes social-psychosocial, biological, and behavioral components, is presented in a deeply complex and related way. Children with low IQs need a lot longer to comprehend and embrace the importance of practicing good dental health. Aim and objectives: The purpose of this study is to use Raven's colored progressive matrices, an intelligence test, to determine if there is an association between dental caries and IQ in children with no parents and ages 7-11 years. Materials and methods: The current research involved 150 orphan children aged 7-11 years from Indore region, focusing on the relation between intelligence quotient (IQ) and dental caries in this population. To measure IQ and determine if children had carious lesions, researchers used Raven's colored progressive matrices and the index of missing, decayed, or filled teeth. Results: A link between intelligence and dental caries was shown to be statistically significant, with lower IQs being associated with higher rates of dental caries.
