1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 comprehensively review the literature and summarize the results from human and animal studies related to the possible causes and pathogenesis of traumatic temporomandibular joint ankylosis (TMJA). MATERIALS AND

methodsThe Google Scholar, Embase, and Web of Science databases were used to search for articles related to traumatic TMJA from 2011 to 2020. All articles were screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, collected, and analyzed.

resultsNineteen relevant articles were collected. These articles were classified into three groups: predisposing and etiological factors, cellular studies, and molecular studies.

conclusionThe pathological mechanisms are similar between TMJA and nonunion hypertrophy. Aberrant structural and etiological factors as well as disordered cellular and molecular mechanisms might contribute to TMJA formation. Although preclinical and clinical data have provided new evidence on the pathogenesis of traumatic TMJA, the molecular mechanisms and biological events require further exploration.
