Craniofacial microsomia - more than a structural malformation.
Article in Orthodontics & craniofacial research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesTo analyse the prevalence and distribution of craniofacial microsomia (CFM) cases in Finland and their most frequent comorbidities. The second aim was to analyse the patients' need for specialized healthcare services. MATERIALS AND
methodsData were gathered from two complementary registers: The Register of Congenital Malformations and the Care Register for Social Welfare and Health Care (Hilmo) of the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare (THL).
resultsThe prevalence of CFM patients in Finland was 1:10 057. They were evenly distributed across the five university hospital districts. Their most frequently used ICD-10 diagnosis codes were F40-48 (Neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders), 60% of patients in adolescent and adult psychiatry; Q67.0 (Facial asymmetry), 43% in plastic surgery; Z00.4 (General psychiatric examination, not elsewhere classified), 31% in child psychiatry; Z31.5 (Genetic counselling), 28% in clinical genetics and Q67.40 (Other congenital deformities of the skull, face and jaw, Hemifacial atrophy), 18% in dental, oral and maxillofacial diseases. Of the patients, 70% had had visits in clinical genetics, 60% in plastic surgery, 41% in dental, oral and maxillofacial diseases, 28% in adolescent/adult psychiatry and 21% in child psychiatry. The majority of the patients' plastic surgery visits were concentrated in one university hospital. Other services were mainly provided by patients' own hospital districts.
conclusionsEven though the majority of CFM patients' visits in specialized healthcare services are related to correction of facial asymmetry and ear malformations, the obvious need for psychiatric care was apparent in all age groups.
