Fluid pressurization and tractional forces during TMJ disc loading: A biphasic finite element analysis.
Article in Orthodontics & craniofacial research, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectivesTo investigate the ploughing mechanism associated with tractional force formation on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc surface. SETTING AND SAMPLE POPULATION: Ten left TMJ discs were harvested from 6- to 8-month-old male Yorkshire pigs. MATERIALS AND
methodsConfined compression tests characterized mechanical TMJ disc properties, which were incorporated into a biphasic finite element model (FEM). The FEM was established to investigate load carriage within the extracellular matrix (ECM) and the ploughing mechanism during tractional force formation by simulating previous in vitro plough experiments.
resultsBiphasic mechanical properties were determined in five TMJ disc regions (average±standard deviation for aggregate modulus: 0.077±0.040 MPa; hydraulic permeability: 0.88±0.37×10
conclusionSustained mechanical loading may play a role in load carriage within the ECM and ploughing force formation during stress-field translation at the condyle-disc interface. This study further elucidated the mechanism of ploughing on tractional force formation and provided a baseline for future analysis of TMJ mechanics, cartilage fatigue and early TMJ degeneration.
