Tooth Count and Prognosis in Older Patients With Heart Failure.
Article in Circulation reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: We aimed to examine the association between tooth count and prognosis in older patients with heart failure. Methods and Results: In this single-center retrospective study of 287 patients aged ≥65 years with heart failure (median age 81 years; 52.8% male), natural and functional tooth counts at discharge were assessed. In Cox regression analyses, higher natural tooth count (hazard ratio 0.951; 95% confidence interval 0.917-0.985; P=0.006) and higher functional tooth count (hazard ratio 0.924; 95% confidence interval 0.882-0.968; P<0.001) were associated with lower 1-year mortality. Conclusions: Higher natural and functional tooth counts were associated with a better prognosis.
