Observational study in Atencion primaria, 2026. 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
objectiveThe main objective of this study was to design and evaluate an oral health booklet for pregnant women, aiming to improve the prevention and monitoring of oral diseases in this group. Secondary objectives included the validation of the booklet through evaluation by dental professionals and its implementation in a population of pregnant women.
designDescriptive, observational, cross-sectional clinical study. The design included two phases: the creation of the booklet based on a literature review, and its evaluation through a survey of 40 dental professionals. Modifications based on feedback received led to the final version of the booklet.
settingThe study was conducted at the University Dental Clinic (COU) of Morales Meseguer Hospital in the Region of Murcia, within the oral health program of the University of Murcia aimed at pregnant women.
participantsA total of 241 pregnant women, between 10 and 31 weeks of gestation, were included in the study. They were selected through midwives from primary care centers and via social media outreach.
methodThe study used a non-probabilistic sample of pregnant women. Questionnaires, clinical histories, and oral examinations were used to collect data. Oral health habits, caries and plaque indices, and dental care recommendations were analyzed.
resultsThe booklet was well accepted by professionals, and a high prevalence of caries (CAOD: 7.34) and plaque (index: 30.15) was identified among the pregnant women.
conclusionsThe booklet is useful for the prevention and monitoring of oral health issues during pregnancy, promoting maternal-infant oral health.
