Central Sensitization and Somatization in Adults with Temporomandibular Disorders: A Prospective Study.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are chronic conditions affecting the masticatory muscles and joints. This study aimed to evaluate central sensitization (CS) and somatization in adults with TMD. Materials and Methods: Eighty adult TMD patients were evaluated using the Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI) and Somatic Symptom Scale-8 (SSS-8). Clinical exams and pain ratings were conducted, and statistical analyses applied. Results: Most participants fell into the subclinical CSI category. Women reported higher somatization scores. A significant correlation existed between somatic symptom severity and chronic muscle pain. Conclusion: CS is less prevalent than expected in TMD patients, while somatization is more pronounced in women and those with chronic muscle pain. Integrated biopsychosocial approaches are recommended.
