Oral-heart axis from pregnancy and postpartum: maternal oral microbiota relates with cardiac reverse remodeling.

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: Emerging evidence links the oral microbiota to cardiovascular health, but this relationship remains poorly understood during pregnancy. Here, we investigated associations between the oral microbiota, cardiovascular physiology, and diet during and after pregnancy. Materials and methods: Salivary microbiota from 65 women in the 3rd trimester and 6 months postpartum were analyzed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Cardiovascular function was assessed via echocardiography, endothelial function by EndoPAT Results: Left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) was negatively associated with nitrite-reducing bacteria, namely, Conclusion: In conclusion, the salivary microbiota profile was associated with cardiovascular physiology during pregnancy and with postpartum cardiovascular recovery. These findings warrant confirmation in larger cohorts to clarify their clinical relevance.
