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

In this case report, we present a patient with idiopathic scoliosis who had been treated with a traditional Chenault corset for seven years without good results. After starting with osteopathy associated with jaw functional orthopedics as adjuvant therapeutics, in 11 months, the difference in posture was evident. It enhanced the effectiveness of the treatment and provided a more complete equilibrium to the patient. Jaw functional orthopedic appliances are able to change the maxillo-mandibular relationship and improve the physiology of the masticatory apparatus, including the position of the condyle inside the articular cavity. Since mandible posture has a great influence on body posture, it can be very helpful as a co-adjuvant therapy.
