Model discrimination (area under the ROC curve, AUC) · Children and adolescents aged 1-18 years
Simplified childhood caries prediction models show moderate pooled discrimination (AUC 0.79, 95% CI 0.73-0.84) but with very high heterogeneity (I2=97.3%) and all models at high risk of bias (PROBAST); ungraded.

Periodontal disease prevalence · Adult residents of slums and non-slum urban settings of LMICs
Periodontal disease prevalence is high (23%-99%) across LMIC urban/slum populations; ungraded.
1 finding from 1 review
Periodontal disease affected all ages, was more pronounced in older groups, and ranged from 23% to 99%, generally higher than dental caries; bleeding gum/gingivitis contributed the largest component.
