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/
objectivesDental caries remains a global challenge, with high prevalence among five-year-old children and regional inequalities. The aim of this study is to identify factors associated with protection from dental caries in five-year-old children, using Salutogenic Theory as a reference.
methodsSecondary data were analyzed from the Minas Gerais Oral Health Survey. Five-year-old children (
resultsFive hundred ninety-five children (50.5%) in the overall sample were caries-free. In the final model, white skin color, monthly family income greater than R$1500, having more than six material goods, and not visiting a dentist in the previous year were associated with ACA and ACE.
conclusionsFactors related to socioeconomic conditions were associated with protection from dental caries in early childhood, supporting equity-based public policies to increase the number of children not affected by caries.
