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
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthritis is a common cause of orofacial pain with distressing symptoms. The patients most commonly females are often anxious and worried due to the typical gritty sound produced during chewing moments. In other cases there is pain followed by decreased mouth opening. Currently the treatment is not standardised though the clinicians are treating these disorders either by oral medications; splintage or by injections. Though local injection of Triamcinolone acetonide and Hyaluronic acid is an innovative therapy yet it is elusive of much research. The main aim of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of with Triamcinolone acetonide and Hyaluronic acid in treating temporomandibular joint arthritis. The present study is a prospective non randomized clinical trial of 100 patients in a tertiary referral centre. The patients diagnosed with temporomandibular joint arthritis were treated with local infiltration of 40 mg triamcinolone acetonide along with 20 mg of hyaluronic acid; one injection every week for 4 weeks. The pre-treatment and post-treatment data was compared using student paired t test and Mann-Whitney U test. Majority of the patients showed relief in symptoms like pain (87/96) and clicking sounds (81/88) and the difference was statistically significant (
