The association between temporomandibular disorders and kinematics of the sacroiliac joint: a 3D motion analysis study.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2025. 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
backgroundTemporomandibular disorders (TMDs) have been the focus of many studies, but the relationship between TMDs and other body segments, such as the pelvis, remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between TMD and kinematics of the sacroiliac joint.
methodTwenty participants with chronic TMD and 20 healthy individuals were included in this study. The temporomandibular joint range of motion, pain intensity, and TMD severity were documented. The three-dimensional kinematics of the sacroiliac joint were recorded during a trunk flexion task using a motion analysis system and MATLAB software.
resultsThe severity of TMD had a significant association with pain intensity in the patient group. At the starting position (before forward flexion of the trunk), we found significant differences in the linear and angular positions of the sacrum relative to the ilium in the sagittal plane and around the frontal axis on both sides between groups.
conclusionOur results indicated significant differences in some parameters between the healthy and TMD groups, emphasizing altered sacroiliac joint kinematics associated with TMD. This study contributes to the ongoing discussion about the relationship between TMD and other areas of the body and highlights the importance of further research in this area.
