Exploring strategies for enhancing access to oral healthcare for adults in Australia: a scoping review.
Review in Frontiers in oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Publicly funded adult oral healthcare services are mostly excluded in Australia's universal health coverage, despite oral disease being among the most common and costly health problems. Australia's vast land area and significant cultural diversity represent further challenges to ensuring equitable access to oral healthcare. A scoping review with the objective of synthesising and describing interventions aimed at improving access to oral healthcare for Australian adults was conducted, guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis extension for Scoping Reviews process. Four online databases (Web of Science, EMBASE, PubMed and CINAHL) and grey literature (via Google Advanced) were searched and multistage systematic screening and data charting processes were undertaken following the JBI manual. Thirty eligible records were identified. Eligible studies included the following target populations: First Nations, rural and remote populations (
