Comparative Evaluation of Candida albicans at Two Oral Sites in Healthy Individuals and Individuals With or Without Diabetes With Chronic Periodontitis: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Cureus, 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.

aimThis study aimed to detect the presence and distribution of MATERIALS AND
methodsThis was a cross-sectional observational study. It was conducted on 167 patients, and they were divided into four groups, which were as follows: Group A, healthy controls; Group B, individuals without diabetes and with chronic periodontitis; Group C, individuals with diabetes and chronic periodontitis with good glycemic control; and Group D, individuals with diabetes and chronic periodontitis with poor glycemic control. The sample was collected from the dorsum of the tongue with a sterile cotton swab, and subgingival samples were obtained using a Gracey curette in sterile capped containers with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and transported to the microbiology department for yeast identification using Sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA) and CHROMagar.
