The effect of core stabilization exercise on lumbar joint position sense in patients with subacute non-specific low back pain: a randomized controlled trial.
Article in Journal of physical therapy science, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06963918 (Effect of Expiratory Muscle Strength Training on Forward Trunk Flexion in Parkinson's Disease), which is not on this map.

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
[Purpose] This study aimed to examine the effect of core stabilization exercise (CSE) on joint position sense, pain intensity, and functional disability in patients with subacute non-specific low back pain (NSLBP). [Participants and Methods] Thirty-eight participants with subacute nonspecific low back pain of 6-12 weeks duration, aged 18-60 years, were included in this study. Participants were randomly divided into two groups: a core stabilization exercise group (n=19) or a control group (n=19). Outcomes measures included lumbar joint repositioning error (LJRE), numeric pain rating scale (11-NRS), and the Roland-Morris disability questionnaires (RMDQ). Measures were taken at baseline, 4 weeks, 7 weeks of intervention, and at 4 weeks after the last intervention. [Results] All outcomes measures were significantly improved in the core stabilization exercise group, compared with the control group. [Conclusion] Core stabilization exercise can improve acuity of joint position sense, reduce pain, and functional disability compared with thermal therapy. The finding demonstrated that core stabilization exercises are more suitable for patients with subacute NSLBP than thermal therapy and this should be useful to clinicians.
