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
backgroundSupplementary pain-related recommendations for the treatment of chronic pain in children and adolescents are an essential component of multimodal pain treatment. Studies are scarce regarding adherence to these recommendations and their effectiveness.
objectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate patient adherence to pain-related recommendations and their effectiveness 12 months after initial presentation of children and adolescents with chronic pain to a pediatric outpatient pain clinic. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 413 patients were assessed using a structured telephone interview. The assessment included pain characteristics during the last 4 weeks as well as information regarding the implementation of the pain-related recommendations and the effectiveness. Due to different recommendations given to migraine patients this subgroup was dealt with separately.
resultsPatients reported significant improvements 12 months after the initial presentation and 29.5 % of the patients were pain free. Adherence levels and estimated effectiveness regarding recommendations, such as change of lifestyle, multimodal inpatient treatment and use of medication were high. Other recommendations, such as active relaxation and outpatient psychotherapy had low adherence levels and low estimated effectiveness. Migraine patients had a significantly higher adherence rate and estimated effectiveness regarding the recommendation use of medication than non-migraine patients.
conclusionThe adherence level as well as the estimated effectiveness regarding the majority of pain-related recommendations was high. Some recommendations had low adherence rates and low estimated effectiveness. These results can help to further improve the performance of outpatient clinics for children and adolescents with chronic pain.
