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

backgroundThis study aimed to assess the influence of bruxism types and frequencies on pain localisation in individuals with temporomandibular disorders (TMD).

methodsThe study participants included 100 TMD patients. Participants consented to undergo clinical evaluations based on the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders Assessment Instruments Protocol (DC/TMD). Pain was determined by palpating the temporal and masseter muscles and the temporomandibular junction (TMJ). The oral behavior checklist (OBC) was used in DC/TMD to assess participants' risk for parafunctional movements and types of bruxism. The parafunctional risk assessment was performed with the assessment method reported by The International Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD) Consortium Network.

resultsMost participants are at high risk for parafunction. There was a statistically significant relationship between masseter, temporal and TMJ pain and parafunctional movements (

conclusionsBased on their frequency and presence, different types of bruxism may be associated with different pain symptoms.
