Mandible Position and Chewing Preference Side Do Not Alter Plantar Support in Children Aged 4-11 Years.
Article in International journal of clinical pediatric dentistry, 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
Introduction: Mandible positioning can cause global postural adaptations. Physiotherapists and dentists try to relate the mandible position and chewing side to plantar support; however, this indication is uncertain. Objectives: To check the existence of a relationship between mandible position, preferred chewing side, age, and plantar support in children. Materials and methods: This is a cross-sectional study with 93 children, aged between 4 and 11 years. Photogrammetry was used to confirm the mandibular positions (centralized, to the right, and to the left), and baropodometry was used to measure plantar support. The mandibular displacement distance to the right and left was evaluated, and the plantar support in the three mandibular positions was compared as a function of age (4-7 and 8-11 years) and preferred chewing side. Results: There was greater mandibular displacement in left laterality [13 (9-19) cm] compared to right laterality [7 (3.50-12.00) cm] ( Conclusion: Mandibular position, age, and preferred chewing side do not influence plantar support in children.
