Surgical Removal of Foramen Ovale Osteophyte Completely Relieved Atypical Trigeminal Neuralgia: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in NMC case report journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Atypical trigeminal neuralgia (TN), usually caused by nonvascular compression, lacks a clearly localized trigger and complete remission periods. Although variations of foramen ovale may compress the mandibular nerve branch of the trigeminal nerve, resulting in atypical TN, only a few case reports are reported in the literature. The authors describe a case of a 50-year-old female diagnosed with atypical TN for two months. A high-resolution computed tomography imaging revealed an osteophyte of the left foramen ovale that may compress the mandibular nerve branch of the trigeminal nerve. The patient underwent osteophyte resection, and the pain disappeared completely and immediately after surgery without recurrence in the follow-up to six months. The numbness was also relieved slightly. This case provides a new perspective on the clinical diagnosis and treatment of patients with atypical TN.
