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

purposeEnd-stage temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disease are not uncommon and affects quality of life. Multiple surgical procedures have been mentioned in literature for management of TMJ disease which ranges from conservative management to aggressive resection of involved joint and replacement with alloplastic total joint prosthesis. The purpose of the present paper was to provide an overview of the role of alloplastic total joint prosthesis in TMJ replacement. METHODS AND

resultsAlloplastic total joint prosthesis is nowadays considered as a standard of care in the adult patients who require TMJ replacement. The requirement of alloplastic total prosthesis has increased in present era with the improvement in design and material of implants, surgical skills and reported victorious outcome along with improved quality of life after its use. It provides restoration of form and functions, improvement in quality of life, reduction in pain and maintenance of ramal height. Additionally, in TMJ ankylosis it reduces chances of re-ankylosis and allows facial asymmetry correction. Currently, enough evidence is however not available for replacement in skeletally immature patient.

conclusionThe authors conclude that the total joint replacement is a standard procedure for end-stage TMJ disease. Every maxillofacial surgeon should be well-acquainted with TMJ replacement.
