1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Caries is a bacterial infection driven by a dysbiotic biofilm enriched and fueled by sugar. Frequent consumption of sugar can impart negative health effects, including caries; thus, there is increased interest in identifying less cariogenic sugar substitutes. In this study, the authors investigated the in vitro pH shift by Methods: Results: All sugars resulted in an initial pH drop to 3.5. For xylitol and sucralose, the pH drop was minimal. Allulose initially dropped to a pH of 5.4 before leveling to 5.7. In subsequent glucose challenges, all Conclusions: Allulose, sucralose, and xylitol did not cause a pH drop as low as sugars, and were not considered cariogenic, except for allulose potentially causing root caries. Sugar substitutes were not able to prevent a pH drop to near 3.5 after the glucose challenge indicating these substitutes are not anticariogenic in the presence of glucose.
