Impact of different occlusal schemes on temporomandibular joint health among edentulous patients in India.
Article in Bioinformation, 2026. 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
Complete denture occlusal schemes impact Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) health in edentulous patients, yet the comparative effects of bilateral balanced, lingualized and monoplane occlusion remain insufficiently defined. Hence, this prospective RCT randomized 75 fully edentulous patients into three groups (n=25 each) who received dentures with bilateral balanced, lingualized or monoplane occlusion and were evaluated at baseline, 3 and 6 months. Lingualized occlusion yielded the lowest Helkimo dysfunction scores, optimal condylar positioning on CBCT and minimal TMJ clicking/deviation compared with other schemes at 6 months. All groups improved maximum mouth opening, but lingualized occlusion showed statistically superior gains alongside the lowest VAS pain scores. Thus, lingualized occlusion is the optimal TMJ-preserving scheme for edentulous patients, guiding clinical denture fabrication.
