[Methodology of the development of the updated LONTS guidelines for long-term administration of opioids in noncancer pain].
Synthesis in Schmerz (Berlin, Germany), 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 10 papers, 7 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
backgroundThe update of the German S3 guidelines on long-term opioid therapy of chronic noncancer pain (CNCP), the"LONTS" (AWMF registration number 145/003) was scheduled for May 2014.
methodsThe guidelines were developed by 25 scientific societies and two patient self-help organizations under the coordination of the German Pain Society and the Association of the Scientific Medical Societies in Germany (AWMF).
resultsA systematic literature search was performed in the CENTRAL, MEDLINE and Scopus databases from October 2008 to October 2013. Meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials (RCT) of opioids in CNPC of study duration ≥ 4 weeks were conducted. Levels of evidence were assigned according to the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine version 2009 classification system. The formulation and strength of recommendations was established in a multistep formalized consensus procedure, in accordance with AWFM rules and standards. The guidelines were reviewed by three scientific societies not involved in their development and were approved by the executive boards of the societies that were engaged in development of the guidelines.
conclusionThe guidelines will be published in several forms: complete and short scientific versions, as well as clinical practice and patient versions.
