Investigating the relationship between temporomandibular disorders and personality traits.

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
backgroundThis observational study investigates the potential link between temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and personality disorders. The Personality Inventory for Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (DSM)-5-Brief Form (PID-5-BF) was used to assess personality traits, while TMD diagnosis was established by combining dental and clinical history with specific screening questionnaires, including the TMD-Pain Screener.
methodsThe study sample was recruited based on inclusion criteria requiring the presence of TMD-related symptoms (pain, joint clicking or functional limitations of the temporomandibular joint), with no active systemic or psychiatric conditions. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical methods to identify significant correlations between PID-5-BF scores and the severity of temporomandibular symptoms.
resultsResults highlight a relevant connection between specific personality domains and TMD symptom severity, suggesting that psychological factors may influence both the onset and persistence of the disorder. Statistically significant associations were found in the domains of antagonism (
conclusionsThese findings underscore the importance of an integrated approach, combining dental and psychological expertise, to improve clinical management and develop more effective prevention and treatment strategies.
