Referral to Pain Specialists for Treatment of Intractable Mandibular Pain Caused by Osteonecrosis of the Jaw: A Case Series Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Pain is a problematic symptom in patients with osteonecrosis of the jaws (ONJ). Effective pain management in patients with advanced ONJ still remains an unresolved issue. This case series report presents three patients who were referred to the pain clinic for treatment of intractable pain caused by ONJ. Two patients received mandibular nerve blocks and achieved pain relief. After referral to the pain clinic, these two patients underwent segmental mandibulectomy for ONJ. In the third patient, the effect of pain control was limited. Appropriate cooperation between the oral and maxillofacial surgeon and the pain specialist is essential for pain management in patients with advanced ONJ who experience intense pain.
