Abstract
Aims: To conduct a systematic review of papers reporting the reliability and diagnostic validity of the joint vibration analysis (JVA) for diagnosis of temporomandibular disorders (TMD).
Methods: A search of Pubmed identified English-language publications of the reliability and diagnostic validity of the JVA. Guidelines were adapted from applied STAndards for the Reporting of Diagnostic accuracy studies (STARD) to evaluate the publications.
Results: Fifteen publications were included in this review, each of which presented methodological limitations.
Conclusion: This literature is unable to provide evidence to support the reliability and diagnostic validity of the JVA for diagnosis of TMD.
