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: To investigate the effectiveness of modified temporomandibular joint disc reduction and suture with tragus incision assisted by arthroscopy for temporomandibular joint anterior disc displacement (ADD). Methods: A clinical data of 30 patients (45 sides) with temporomandibular joint ADD, who met selective criteria and were admitted between September 2022 and February 2024, was retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 15 patients (23 sides) were treated with temporomandibular joint disc reduction and suture via small incision (open operation group), and 15 patients (22 sides) with modified temporomandibular joint disc reduction and suture with tragus incision assisted by arthroscopy (arthroscopy group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, disease duration, affected side, Wilkes-Bronstein stage, preoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) score, maximal interincisal opening (MIO), and temporomandibular joint dysfunction index (DI), craniomandibular index (CMI), palpation index (PI), and other baseline data between groups ( Results: All incisions healed by first intention in the two groups. All patients were followed up 3-18 months (mean, 8.2 months). Facial nerve injury occurred in 3 cases in the open operation group and 1 case in the arthroscopy group, all of which returned to normal after physiotherapy and drug treatment. At 3 months after operation, MIO and VAS scores of both groups significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( Conclusion: Modified temporomandibular joint disc reduction and suture with tragus incision assisted by arthroscopy has a clear effect in the treatment of ADD, with less trauma, fewer postoperative complications, and good early effectiveness.
