Treatment of Trigeminal Neuralgia With Stereotactic Radiosurgery Improved Symptoms of Morbihan Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a neuropathic pain disorder characterized by paroxysmal pain in the maxillary and mandibular regions of the face. Morbihan syndrome is a disease that classically presents with dermatologic findings, including progressive facial edema and erythema. There are no previous reports of the onset of trigeminal neuralgia with Morbihan syndrome or previous reports describing improvement in symptoms of Morbihan syndrome with treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. We describe the case of a 62-year-old female who presented with trigeminal neuralgia and shortly thereafter developed significant facial edema and was diagnosed with Morbihan syndrome. The neuralgia was refractory to medical management and was effectively treated with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). This coincided with an improvement in her Morbihan syndrome that is now controlled following stereotactic radiosurgery and continued lymphatic massage.
