Patient Satisfaction Following Orthognathic Surgery: A Systematic Review.
Review in Journal of maxillofacial and oral surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Objective: This study is intended to review data pertaining to patient satisfaction following orthognathic surgery through a systematic literature survey. Methods and Materials: An electronic search was done on Medline, EMBASE and CENTRAL databases. The inclusion criteria considered were as follows: (1) assessment of patients' satisfaction, (2) one-stage orthognathic surgery, and (3) follow-up period of 8 weeks or more in English literature. The exclusion criteria considered were as follows: (1) presence of craniofacial syndromes, cleft lip and palate or traumatic injuries, (2) previous facial surgery, and (3) psychological problems before surgery. The data were extracted and analyzed under three categories: function, esthetics and overall satisfaction. Results: Eighteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Esthetic and function were improved in majority of patients; however, it was not possible to assess the overall satisfaction levels statistically. Overall satisfaction analysis revealed that 70-87% of patients were satisfied, while nearly 15% of patients were dissatisfied with the treatment outcome. Conclusion: Most of the patients were satisfied with the surgical outcome. However, satisfaction seemed to be multifactorial and it was not possible to predict satisfaction prior to the surgery.
