Effects of Jaw-Opening Exercises with/without Pain for Temporomandibular Disorders: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.
Trial report in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of jaw-opening exercises with and without pain on temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), specifically in relation to pain intensity and range-of-mouth opening in patients with TMDs. Participants were randomly assigned to either the jaw-opening exercise with pain (JE w/pain) or the jaw-opening exercise without pain (JE w/o pain) groups, and each exercise was performed for eight weeks. TMDs pain intensity was assessed using a 100-mm visual analog scale (VAS), and the range-of-mouth opening was evaluated at the baseline (T0), 2 weeks (T1), 4 weeks (T2), and 8 weeks (T3). Of the 61 participants, 57 (JE w/pain group,
