Effects of bifidobacterium lactis bb12 probiotic consumption on streptococcus mutans levels: a systematic review of randomized clinical trials.
Review in Revista cientifica odontologica (Universidad Cientifica del Sur). 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
Introduction: One of the main bacteria related to dental caries is Streptococcus mutans, and currently, various studies are evaluating how to decrease its count. The effect and efficacy of probiotic consumption as a method to inhibit this bacterium are currently being analyzed. Objective: To evaluate the effect of the probiotic Materials and Methods: An electronic search was conducted in the PubMed, Scopus, EBSCO, and EMBASE databases to find randomized clinical trials that evaluated the effect of the probiotic BB12 on SM levels. Results: Studies demonstrated an association between the consumption of BB12 and the reduction of SM count. Conclusions: Further studies are needed to analyze the effect of the probiotic BB12 on SM, particularly studies investigating larger study populations and conducted over longer study periods.
