Management of bilateral pterygoid myositis ossificans-like lesion in dogs.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Myositis ossificans (MO) and myositis ossificans-like lesions have been rarely described within the veterinary literature, and are even less common in the maxillofacial region. When MO affects the muscles of mastication, it can result in complete or partial inability to open the mouth. As with other conditions resulting in decreased or restricted mandibular range of motion, severe and potentially fatal sequelae such as difficulty with prehension, swallowing, and air exchange are possible. Diagnostic imaging is essential in achieving an accurate diagnosis and in formulating an appropriate treatment plan. In this "method" manuscript, we provide a detailed description of our approach to diagnosis and surgical management of MO-like lesions of the pterygoid muscles and describe our experience with two young French bulldogs.
