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

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other inflammatory arthritis are systemic diseases that primarily affect the joints, characterized by synovial inflammation and progressive cartilage and bone degradation. The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is reported to be involved in over 50% of RA cases, often leading to severe jaw pain and compromised oral function. Despite its prevalence, TMJ involvement is often underestimated, and its cellular and molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Due to the unique biological and functional properties of the TMJ, inflammatory pathways observed in other joints such as the well-studied ankle joint may not directly apply to the TMJ. This study aimed to establish a reliable inflammatory arthritis model for investigating TMJ-specific pathomechanisms. The human TNF-α transgenic (hTNFtg) mouse model effectively replicated TMJ pathology seen in arthritic patients, including increased synovial inflammation (
