1 · What the graph read from 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.

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

backgroundBack pain is common during pregnancy and can have an adverse impact on the quality of life for some, yet treatment options for this population are limited. We document a chiropractic treatment that involves using kinesiology tape (tape) to help alleviate pregnancy-related back pain in two patients. CASE PRESENTATION AND MANAGEMENT: Two pregnant women reported to two different chiropractic offices with varying presentations of pregnancy-related back pain. A trial of chiropractic care was rendered in both chiropractic offices, which included the application of tape. OUTCOME AND DISCUSSION: In both case presentations, the addition of tape in the lumbosacral and/or abdominal regions, decreased pain intensity from 9-10/10 to 4/10 or less on the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Including a taping protocol to a plan of management in women with pregnancy-related LBP or PGP may be a safe and effective option to alleviate pain in this population.
