Effects of a multidisciplinary programme on postural stability in patients with chronic recurrent low back pain: preliminary findings.

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
purposeThis longitudinal study investigated the effects of a multidisciplinary rehabilitation programme on postural stability in patients with low back pain. While the consequences of such rehabilitation programme have been described for pain, mobility, strength, and functional disability, the effects on postural stability have not been examined so far.
methodsThirty-four patients suffering from chronic low back pain were included to participate in a multidisciplinary rehabilitation programme. We assessed postural stability, pain, strength of the lumbar extensor muscles, and functional disability. The examinations were performed before the intervention, after 20 training sessions ("half-way point"), and at the end of the rehabilitation programme.
resultsAll outcome measures improved significantly from baseline to the first follow-up evaluation and remained constant until completion of the rehabilitation programme.
conclusionsA multidisciplinary outpatient rehabilitation programme may improve postural stability, muscle strength, pain, and functional disability in patients with chronic low back pain.
