[Prevalence of temporomandibular disorders in seniors-Symptom-related analyses in younger and older seniors].
Article in Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundTemporomandibular disorders (TMD) are common in the general population even in old age. Information on the prevalence of TMD in older people is sparse.
objectiveTo present prevalence values for symptoms and signs of TMD in old people according to the research diagnostic criteria for temporomandibular disorders (RDC/TMD). To compare prevalence values between the age groups of 60-74 years (younger seniors) and ≥ 75 years (older seniors). MATERIAL AND
methodsSubjects of the interdisciplinary longitudinal study of adult development (ILSE), a representative sample of old people in Germany, were examined between 2014-2016. Subjects of the urban area of Leipzig were chosen to examine symptoms and signs of TMD.
resultsThe most prevalent symptom was orofacial pain (13.0%) in the aged participants (n = 192). Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) sounds were the most prevalent sign with values up to 35.5%. Gender comparisons revealed higher prevalence values for the symptom headache/migraine as well as for the signs TMJ sounds (especially clicking sounds) and limited mouth opening in females. Regarding age groups, significant differences were only observed for self-reported headache/migraine.
conclusionOrofacial pain was reported by 13.0% of the subjects and TMJ sounds were observed in every third participant. Similar prevalence values for TMD symptoms and signs in younger and older seniors were found.
