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 prevalence of temporomandibular disorders in the population with chronic or recurrent headaches is too high for a relationship not to exist. Publications propose the examination of the masticatory system in all patients with headache. Objective: To introduce a new entity within temporomandibular disorders, temporomandibular joint compromise (TMJC), mandibular movement limiting pathology of extra-articular traumatic cause, and evaluate the response rate and safety of treatment. The limiting cause of mandibular movement is the lack of space between the mandibular ramus and maxilla. The main symptoms of TMJC include headache, dizziness, and tinnitus. In many cases, the headache is previously diagnosed as a migraine. Methods: Data were collected from 54 patients aged between 6 and 59 years who had a confirmed diagnosis of migraine (according to the the International Classification of Headache Disorders, 3rd edition [ICHD3]) and were treated for TMJC in a dental clinic. They also presented other otolaryngological symptoms. A retrospective quasi-experimental study without a control group was carried out due to ethical considerations related to the harmless nature of the treatment. Results: After treatment of TMJC, migraine symptoms disappeared in 52 patients (96.3%, Conclusion: The present study shows the high rate of response and safety of the treatment of TMJC.
