Associations between periodontal disease-induced immune cell activation and energy metabolism.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 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
Periodontal disease is an infectious-inflammatory disease with widespread systemic effects. Accumulating evidence from clinical and experimental studies has elucidated the mechanisms by which periodontal disease influences systemic energy metabolism, including glucose and lipid metabolisms. These effects are thought to arise from the persistent immune activation associated with periodontitis, leading to systemic inflammatory responses. Specifically, chronic inflammation, such as periodontitis, promotes the infiltration of pro-inflammatory immune cells into adipose tissue, activates immune-metabolic signaling pathways involving dendritic cells, macrophages and T cells, and disrupts thermogenesis and lipid metabolism in adipose tissue and the liver. In addition, periodontal disease has been implicated in alterations in the gut microbiota through the oral-microbiota-gut axis, further contributing to metabolic dysregulation. Collectively, these findings suggest that the influence of periodontal disease on energy metabolism is multifaceted and complex and involves coordinated disturbances in immune regulation, adipose tissue function, hepatic metabolic processes, and gut microbiota homeostasis, ultimately resulting in impaired systemic energy metabolic regulation.
