Periodontal impact in acute myocardial infarction: A comparative study using Russell's periodontal index.
Article in Bioinformation, 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
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) represents a leading global cause of mortality, with emerging evidence linking periodontal disease to cardiovascular risk through systemic inflammatory pathways. Hence, this comparative cross-sectional study evaluated periodontal status using the Russell Periodontal Index (RPI) in 90 AMI patients versus 90 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. AMI patients exhibited significantly higher mean RPI scores (4.82 ± 1.94) compared to controls (1.76 ± 1.23; p < 0.001), with 71.1% showing moderate-to-severe periodontal disease. Multivariate regression analysis confirmed severe periodontal disease as an independent AMI predictor (OR = 2.89; 95% CI: 1.67-4.98) after adjusting for conventional cardiovascular risk factors. These findings advance cardio-periodontology by establishing oral health assessment as a critical component of comprehensive cardiovascular risk stratification and preventive care.
