Marcus-Gunn Jaw-Winking Phenomenon: A Case Report on Rare Oculofacial Synkinesis.
Article in International medical case reports journal, 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
The Marcus-Gunn jaw-winking phenomenon (MGJWP) is an uncommon congenital oculofacial synkinesis resulting from abnormal innervation between the fifth cranial nerve (trigeminal, CN V) and the third cranial nerve (oculomotor, CN III). This case report presents a 5-month-old girl with characteristic left eyelid elevation during suckling movements, highlighting the importance of clinical observation in early diagnosis. The condition was confirmed based on clinical findings, with no associated neurological or structural abnormalities. Management involved observation and follow-up to monitor potential complications such as strabismus or anisometropia. MGJWP remains an essential consideration in cases of unusual eyelid movement, emphasizing the role of multidisciplinary consultation for comprehensive care.
