The Contribution of Insomnia and Obstructive Sleep Apnea on the Transition from Acute to Chronic Painful Temporomandibular Disorders and their Persistence: A Prospective 3-Month Cohort Study.
Article in Canadian journal of pain = Revue canadienne de la douleur, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Insomnia, and Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS), a surrogate marker of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), are common sleep-related conditions among painful temporomandibular disorders (TMD) patients. OSA was found to increase the risk of chronic painful TMD. Aims: This prospective cohort study aims to determine the contribution of insomnia and EDS on acute to chronic painful TMD transition as well as its persistence when chronic pain is defined by: (i) duration (> 3 months), and (ii) dysfunction (Graded Chronic Pain Scale [GCPS II-IV]). Methods: From 456 patients recruited between 2015 to 2021, through four locations in Canada, 378 completed the follow-up. A diagnosis was obtained using the Research Diagnostic Criteria or the Diagnostic Criteria for TMD. Insomnia was assessed with the Insomnia Severity Scale (ISS), and OSA was assessed using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) which measures EDS, both at baseline. Patients completed the GCPS form at baseline and 3-month follow-up. Results: Borderline associations were found between EDS and the transition or persistence of chronic painful TMD when chronic pain was defined by pain duration (RR Conclusion: Results indicate that EDS contrary to insomnia predicted the persistence of chronic painful TMD at a 3-month follow-up.
