G allele of ENAM rs3796704 vs A allele of ENAM rs3796704: Dental caries susceptibility

Population
Individuals assessed for dental caries (cases with caries/high caries vs. caries-free or low/very-low-caries controls)
Intervention
G allele of ENAM rs3796704
Comparison
A allele of ENAM rs3796704
Outcome
Dental caries susceptibility

No significant association between G allele vs A allele of ENAM rs3796704 and dental caries susceptibility (G vs A model: OR 1.11, 95% CI 0.57-2.15) in the Ethnicity: Mixed subgroup; certainty not graded.

How reviews are matched to this question

Reviews word the same question differently. Four decision models (TypeSafe's Jev, Liquid AI's d1-ultra, SubQ Snap and Baseten's Elephant) judged each wording of the population, intervention, comparator and outcome against the others; two wordings count as the same when at least three of them agree and none clearly disagrees, and findings count as this question only when all four elements match. Timing, setting and subgroup never split a question: they are shown on each finding.
