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
introductionThe present study was performed to investigate the effect of multidimensional psychological prophylaxis training focusing on coping with cognitive-emotional pain on recovery within the first 12 months after surgery. The training included the following three components: (1) education about pain, analgesia and psychological aspects of coping with pain, (2) training for coping with pain and (3) body-centered relaxation. MATERIAL AND
methodsIn the study 48 young male patients (surgical correction of a chest malformation) were assessed 1 day before surgery, at discharge and 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively concerning postoperative pain intensity and pain disability as well as pain anxiety, pain catastrophizing and pain hypervigilance. Additionally, 24 of these patients received training on cognitive-emotional coping with pain 1 day before surgery and 1-3 days after surgery (each session 1 h).
resultsThe proportion of patients with clinically relevant improvement was significantly higher in the training group compared to the control group. This was the case for acute pain intensity (approximately 1 week after surgery), pain disability 3 months later and pain anxiety 12 months after surgery.
conclusionThe resurgence of pain anxiety after 12 months could only be found in the control group and could be due to the upcoming surgical removal of the transsternal metal implant. The prophylaxis training can therefore be seen as a protective factor for long-term management of surgery-related consequences and future pain experiences.
