Influence of Soft Stabilization Splint on Electromyographic Patterns in Masticatory and Neck Muscles in Healthy Women.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 investigates the influence of soft stabilization splints on electromyographic patterns in masticatory and neck muscles in healthy women. A total of 70 healthy women were qualified for the research. The resting and clenching electromyographic patterns of the temporalis (TA), masseter (MM), digastric (DA), and sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscles were measured using the BioEMG III™ apparatus. The interaction between splint application and resting muscle activity affected the results in all examined muscles except the temporalis muscle. A large effect size was observed in masseter (2.19 µV vs. 5.18 µV;
