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

The human microbiome consists of microbial communities inhabiting different body sites and their genetic information, and plays an important role in maintaining host health. As an important component of the human microbiome, the oral microbiota contributes to maintaining oral microbial homeostasis, regulating local immune responses, participating in nutrient metabolism, and modulating systemic health. Initial colonization of the oral microbiota in early life lays the foundation for subsequent microbial development and lifelong oral health, and alterations in the oral microbiota are closely associated with various oral and systemic diseases. This review systematically summarizes the age-related succession of the oral microbiota across infancy, childhood and adolescence, adulthood, and old age; analyzes oral diseases associated with microbial dysbiosis at different life stages; discusses host-related, microenvironmental, and exogenous factors influencing age-related changes in the oral microbiota; and summarizes intervention strategies based on microbial ecological regulation. This review aims to provide new insights into age-related changes in the oral microbiota and to support the development of a life-course oral microbial health management model.
