Identification of Bacteroides forsythus in subgingival plaque from patients with advanced periodontitis.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 1993. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Bacteroides forsythus has been associated with destructive adult periodontitis. Up to now, detailed analysis by classical means was hampered by the fastidious nature of the organism. There is hope that the application of molecular detection methods such as indirect immunofluorescence or in situ hybridization (ISH) will allow for more rapid and accurate identification. Here we describe a B. forsythus-specific probe (BFV530), complementary to 16S rRNA, which correctly identified all B. forsythus isolates as confirmed by biochemical, protein, or fatty acid analysis. To assess whether this probe might be suitable for direct identification of B. forsythus in clinical specimens, a total of 92 subgingival plaque samples were analyzed. Fifty-five specimens were tested in parallel by culture, light microscopy, and filter hybridization. Unfortunately, the overall agreement between results of filter hybridization and conventional methods was 70.9% only. We therefore examined 37 new specimens by ISH and indirect immunofluorescence by using fluorescently labeled probe BFV530 or B. forsythus-specific monoclonal antibody 116BF1.2 (kindly provided by R. Gmür, Zurich, Switzerland), respectively. Agreement between these methods was 100%, indicating that ISH with probe BFV530 might be used to accurately identify B. forsythus directly in subgingival plaque samples.
