[Medium-term effects of a multimodal therapy on patients with fibromyalgia. Results of a controlled efficacy study].
Article in Schmerz (Berlin, Germany), 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 5 of them syntheses that pooled it.
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
objectiveFibromyalgia shows a chronic course of the disease in most cases. Multimodal therapy has short-term effects but only intensive forms of therapy attain long-term effects. As part of an inpatient rehabilitation program a multimodal pain treatment including cognitive-behavioral therapy was conducted in order to evaluate medium-term effects.
methodThe German pain questionnaire (DSF), the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS-D), the chronic pain questionnaire (FESV), the short form questionnaire on indicators of rehabilitation status (IRES-24) and the self-efficacy scale (ASES-D) were distributed to 166 fibromyalgia patients (intervention group n=116; control group n=50) before and after rehabilitation as well as 6 months after treatment.
resultsThe intervention group showed better results regarding symptoms (pain intensity, anxiety, depression), state of health (somatic health, psychological well-being, functioning in everyday life) and self-efficacy.
conclusionsBased on the positive medium-term effects on functioning in everyday life and self-efficacy there is evidence that patients benefit from multimodal rehabilitation programs including integrative patient education.
