1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Dental caries is a dysbiotic biofilm-induced disease driven by Methods: The composition of BLP was determined by ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer (UPLC-MS/MS). The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and acid suppression activity were determined. In addition, the effect on biofilm was investigated by adhesion and aggregation assay, crystal violet assay, glycosyltransferases (GTF) activity, extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) quantification, scanning electron microscope (SEM) images and qRT-PCR. Furthermore, we carried out a rat caries model, and microbiome analyzes were performed by 16S rRNA sequencing. Results: UPLC-MS/MS analysis identified a range of compounds in BLP, including quercetin and chlorogenic acid. The MIC of BLP was 500 μg/mL, and it inhibited the acid production of Conclusions: BLP combats caries by inhibiting
