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

Dental caries is a prevalent childhood disease with a multifactorial etiology. The aim of the study is to evaluate the prevalence of extensive dental caries and its association with socioeconomic factors, dietary and daily toothbrushing frequency, and sleep disorders (SDs) in children aged 6 to 10 years. A cross-sectional study with 516 children and their caregivers was carried out. Socioeconomic information and data on dietary habits and oral health behaviors were obtained through a questionnaire administered to parents/caregivers. SDs were assessed using the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children. Extensive dental caries was assessed using the ICDAS II (codes 5-6). Descriptive analyses and multivariate Poisson regression were performed. The prevalence of extensive dental caries was 20.7%. Extensive caries was associated with lower parental education (PR = 1.68; 95% CI: 1.16-2.44;
