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: Allergic rhinitis (AR) and allergic asthma (AS) are associated with increased risk of dental caries, potentially associated with alterations in the oral microbiome. Objective: To characterize supragingival plaque microbiome features and their associations with caries severity in allergic adults. Design: This cross-sectional study enrolled patients with cat dander-induced AR or AS, along with age- and sex-comparable normal controls (NC). Supragingival plaque was collected for 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Microbial diversity, ANCOM-BC2 with multiple-testing correction and pseudo-count sensitivity analysis and LEfSe exploratory analysis were performed. Factors of caries severity (DMFT/DMFS) were examined with a random forest model and multivariable negative binomial regression. Results: A total of 89 participants (32 AR, 46 AS and 11 NC) were included. Allergic patients exhibited significantly higher Conclusions: Plaque microbial communities differed across groups, and selected taxa were associated with caries severity among allergic adults. Future investigations are needed to evaluate temporality and mechanisms.
