Morphological and Morphometric Analysis of the Maxillary Nerve in South Indian Cadavers.
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. 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
Introduction: The maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve is a purely sensory nerve that originates in the cranial cavity from the trigeminal ganglion. It leaves the cranial cavity through the foramen rotundum to enter the pterygopalatine fossa. The maxillary nerve enters the infraorbital fissure and gives off its zygomatic and posterior superior alveolar branches. Method: The cranial cavity, infratemporal, and pterygopalatine fossae of 20 formalin-embalmed human cadavers of South Indian origin were dissected bilaterally to expose the maxillary nerve, and its morphology and morphometric dimensions in relation to various bony landmarks were recorded. Result: The results showed that the mean distance from the point of origin of the maxillary nerve to the foramen rotundum was 1.61 ± 0.32 cm. The mean length of the maxillary nerve from the foramen rotundum to the inferior orbital fissure was 1.84 ± 0.37 cm. The mean distance travelled by the infraorbital nerve in the infraorbital groove and canal was 2.96 ± 0.36 cm. two posterior superior alveolar (PSAN) close to the posterior surface of the maxilla proximal to the origin of the zygomatic branch. Conclusion: The results of our study will contribute to the existing literature, aiding clinicians in the administration of local anesthetics for dental implant placement during maxillary molar extraction and enhancing clinical practices in oro-maxillofacial surgery.
