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

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) may worsen oral health and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL), yet stage-wise impact remains unclear. Therefore, it is of interest to compare OHRQoL among 100 CKD patients stratified by disease stage using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Oral health status was assessed for caries, periodontal condition and xerostomia, while OHRQoL was measured using the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14). Higher CKD stages showed significantly increased OHIP-14 scores with greater prevalence of xerostomia, periodontal disease and mucosal lesions. Thus, we show an association between CKD progression and declining OHRQoL, supporting early dental screening and integrated care.
