Post-traumatic Trigeminal Neuropathic Pain: Factors Affecting Surgical Treatment Outcomes.
Article in Frontiers in oral health, 2022. 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
Post-traumatic trigeminal neuropathic pain (PTTNp) is a painful condition that may result from injury to the sensory division of the trigeminal nerve. Treatment of this condition is challenging and consensus on treatment to resolve neuropathic pain has yet to be standardized. Equally as challenging is the identification of surgical outcome variables to guide surgical treatment of PTTNp. This is partly due to the variability in pain characteristics, severity of nerve injury, location, and duration from injury to surgery. In those with neuropathic pain prior to microsurgical intervention, the incidence of neuropathic pain after microsurgical intervention is 67%. It is unclear why nerve repair surgery is effective in resolving or decreasing neuropathic pain in some patients, whereas it has no effect on pain relief in others. Psychological, medical, and age-related factors have been identified as risk factors for developing chronic post-surgical pain due to post-traumatic neuropathic pain. Two factors: injury to surgery time and preoperative visual analog scale score have recently been identified as variables that influence surgical outcomes in the treatment of PTTNp.
