Do the Mandibular Condyles Change Their Positions within Glenoid Fossae after Occlusal Splint Therapy Combined with Physiotherapy in Patients Diagnosed with Temporomandibular Joint Disorders? A Prospective Case Control Study.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06095856 (Evaluation of Masseter and Anterior Temporalis Muscles Activity After Using Different Methods to Locate Centric Relation in Healthy Adults), which is not on this map. Cited by 10 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.

Abstract
The research question was: do the mandibular condyles change their position within glenoid fossae after treatment combining occlusal splint therapy and physiotherapy in patients diagnosed with temporomandibular disorders (TMD)? Forty patients with TMD were included into the study. They underwent initial physiotherapy, and a six-month treatment of occlusal splint therapy with physiotherapy. Cone-beam computed tomography images of temporomandibular joints (TMJs) were taken before and after the treatment. The control group consisted of 15 asymptomatic patients, who did not receive any type of occlusal treatment. The changes in the dimension of anterior, superior, posterior, and medial joint spaces after the end of the treatment in patients with TMD were statistically insignificant. The average value of condylar ratio was significantly higher after the end of the treatment (
