Immunological Status of Saliva in Children with Asthma by Disease Severity.
Article in International journal of clinical pediatric dentistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Aim: The primary goal of this study was to evaluate the immunological status of saliva in those children suffering from asthma based on the severity and duration of the disease's prevalence. Materials and methods: A saliva test for the presence of immunoglobulins A (IgA) and G (IgG), and the secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) and lysozyme activity was conducted in 7, 12, and 15-year-old children suffering from asthma (main group) totaling 98 children in all and another 68 healthy children (control group) to observe and determine the local immunity levels in the oral cavity. Making use of the radial immunodiffusion method in agar gel, the concentration of IgA and IgG in the oral fluid was conducted as a part of the study. The evaluation of immunoglobulins in asthmatics was carried out, depending on the severity and duration of asthma. Results: Children suffering from asthma experienced a decrease in the local immunoglobulin mechanisms of saliva protection. Compared to the control group, asthmatic children displayed a lower level of sIgA by 2.0 times, IgA by 1.6 times, lysozyme by 2.2 times, and an increase in the level of IgG by 1.2 times. Conclusions: With the data obtained, it is clearly indicated that children suffering from asthma are subjected to decreased defense mechanism levels, which, in turn, could be the primary contributing factor for caries development in those children affected by asthma.
