Combination Therapeutic Effect of Antibacterial and Antiviral Agents on Feline Chronic Gingivostomatitis Nonbounded to Prior Tooth Extraction Confirmed by Physical Signs and Clinical Biomarkers.
Article in Veterinary sciences, 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
backgroundFeline chronic gingivostomatitis (FCGS) is refractory stomatitis in cats. The cure rate of tooth extraction selected as a primary surgical treatment is insufficient.
methods52 FCGS-suspected cats, including 22 tooth-extracted and 30 unextracted cats, were studied. Commercially available antiviral and antibacterial agents were orally administered as initial treatment, followed by the antiviral agent solely as maintenance therapy. We examined the influence of prior tooth extraction on the therapeutic efficacy of these two drugs by analyzing changes in some physical signs and clinical laboratory biomarkers.
resultsMass spectrometric analysis revealed the active ingredients of antibacterial and antiviral were Moxifloxacin and Molnupiravir, respectively. All physical signs (weight, appetite, activity level, grooming behavior, ptyalism, erythema) showed statistically significant improvements with combined administration of these drugs. Numbers of white blood cells, neutrophils and monocytes, as well as circulating levels of total protein, albumin, globulin, and serum amyloid-A all statistically significantly decreased with their administration (
conclusionsNo statistically significant differences were detected between two FCGS groups in the changes in any of the above physical signs or clinical biomarker levels, indicating combination therapy with antibacterial and antiviral agents leads to effective treatment of FCGS, regardless of whether prior tooth extraction was performed or not.
