1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In orofacial pain patients, pain-related temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and neuropathic pain (NP) can both be present. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to examine whether in patients with orofacial pain, associations can be found between (subdiagnoses of) pain-related TMD and NP. Participants were asked to fill in the questionnaires of the Diagnostic Criteria for TMD (DC/TMD) and a screening questionnaire for NP, the Douleur Neuropathique 4 (DN4). Complete data sets were collected from 355 participants with an orofacial pain complaint. First, univariate analyses were used to pre-screen the independent variables. Subsequently, multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was used to further assess the association between the independent variables, which were significant in the univariate analyses, and the dependent variable NP. From all 355 participants, 274 (77.2%) had pain-related TMD. 72 participants (20.3%) had a DN4 score ≥4, suggesting the presence of NP. A DN4 score ≥4 occurred in 62 (22.6%) of the 274 cases with pain-related TMD. In the univariate analyses, NP was found to be significantly associated with the presence of pain-related TMD (χ
