Clinical variables associated with the presence of articular pain in patients with temporomandibular joint clicking.
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 2021. 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
objectiveTo study and estimate the impact of clinical, somatosensory, and psychosocial variables associated with the concomitant presence of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain in patients with TMJ clicking. MATERIALS AND
methodsNinety-three individuals composed the sample: patients with painful TMJ clicking (n = 47) and patients with painless TMJ clicking (n = 46). Four categories of data were evaluated: clinical features (gender, maximal interincisal distance (MID), side of complaint, age); bruxism (sleep bruxism (SB), awake bruxism (AB)); somatosensory (mechanical pain threshold (MPT), wind-up ratio (WUR), pressure pain threshold (PPT), conditioned pain modulation (CPM)); and psychosocial (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), pain vigilance and awareness questionnaire (PVAQ), Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia for Temporomandibular Disorders (TSK/TMD), Oral Behaviors (OBs)).
resultsFemale gender, AB, WUR, CPM, PSQI, PCS, and OBs significantly (p < 0.05) increased the chance of the concomitant presence of TMJ pain in patients with TMJ clicking. On the other hand, MID, MPT, and PPT significantly (p < 0.05) decreased this chance. The other variables had no association.
conclusionIt can be concluded that being a woman, having AB, hyperalgesia in WUR, less efficient CPM, poor sleep quality, pain catastrophizing, and harmful OBs significantly increased the chance of the concomitant presence of TMJ pain in patients with TMJ clicking. In the opposite, high figures of MID, MPT, and PPT decreased the chance. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Most patients with TMJ clicking usually postpone seeking treatment until the clicking truly disturbs or there is a concomitant presence of TMJ pain. Understanding the variables associated with this concomitance can be important in clinical practice.
