Probing the antinociceptive and therapeutic potential of probiotics in managing temporomandibular joint arthritis.
Review in Journal of Taibah University Medical Sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 literature review explored the antinociceptive and therapeutic effects of probiotic therapy (PT) in the treatment of arthritic conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Indexed databases were searched without time and language restrictions up to and including February 2023, to identify studies addressing the question: "Is PT effective for the management of TMJ arthritis?" The following keywords were used in different combinations with Boolean operators: arthritis, osteoarthritis, pain, probiotic, rheumatoid, temporomandibular disorders, and temporomandibular joint. Original clinical and experimental studies assessing the therapeutic efficacy of PT in the management of osteoarthritis were eligible for inclusion. Letters to the editor, reviews, commentaries, perspectives, and expert opinions were not sought. The structure of the current review was tailored to encapsulate relevant information. A total of 297 relevant studies were identified during the initial literature search, and the full text and reference lists of these studies were scrutinized. To date, the potential role of PT in managing osteoarthritis of the TMJ region remains uninvestigated. No clinical trials in the indexed literature have assessed the efficacy of PT in managing TMJ arthritis; however, this finding does not preclude a potential role of probiotics as antinociceptive and therapeutic agents in susceptible populations.
