T allele of AMELX rs6639060 vs C allele of AMELX rs6639060: Dental caries susceptibility

Population
Individuals assessed for dental caries (cases with caries/high caries vs. caries-free or low/very-low-caries controls)
Intervention
T allele of AMELX rs6639060
Comparison
C allele of AMELX rs6639060
Outcome
Dental caries susceptibility

No significant association between T allele vs C allele of AMELX rs6639060 and dental caries susceptibility (T vs C model: OR 1.08, 95% CI 0.63-1.85) in the Ethnicity: Caucasian subgroup; certainty not graded.

The same intervention and outcome, asked in another population or against another comparator.

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.
