Meeting them where they are: Using the Internet to deliver behavioral medicine interventions for pain.
Review in Translational behavioral medicine, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05390957 (A Pilot Study of a Revised Online Chronic Pain Treatment for Military, RCMP, and Veterans), which is not on this map. Cited by 28 papers, 2 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.

Abstract
Pharmacological and interventional pain medicine treatments are emphasized in the routine treatment of chronic pain despite strong evidence for the efficacy and safety of behavioral approaches. Most medical professionals have not incorporated behavioral pain treatments into their practices. Internet-based interventions have the potential to increase clinical use of these treatments. We discuss the strengths and weaknesses of current Internet-based behavioral pain management interventions, focusing on three broad intervention categories: therapist-guided interventions, unguided (automated) interventions, and pain-relevant applications for mobile platforms. Examples of each category are discussed, revealing a high degree of variation in approaches, user interfaces, and components as well as variability in the degree to which these interventions have been subjected to empirical testing. Finally, we highlight key issues for research and clinical implementation, with the goal of advancing this field so that it can meet its potential to increase access to evidence-based behavioral medicine treatments for chronic pain.
