Trigeminal Neuralgia - A Debilitating Facial Pain.
Article in Reviews in pain, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is characterised by sudden usually unilateral severe, brief, stabbing, recurrent episodes of pain in the distribution of one or more branches of the trigeminal nerve.Diagnosis is largely based on clinical history due to the current lack of objective investigations.MRI can identify those patients who have TN secondary to an underlying pathology such as multiple sclerosis.The first line medical management remains carbamazepine, with oxcarbazepine being the second choice medication.Both percutaneous techniques targeting the Gasserian ganglion and microvascular decompression can be considered effective in the management of TN. Microvascular decompression is considered to provide on average, the longest pain free period post surgery.There are a number of TN associations and support groups which provide a valued service to patients and clinicians.Due to a dearth of high quality studies in many aspects of the condition, TN requires further research to be conducted.
