Development, validation and evaluation of a novel self-instructional module in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain.
Article in Indian journal of anaesthesia, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
backgroundLow back pain (LBP) is ranked highest in terms of disability-adjusted life-years lived. Patient education and self-management have shown to play a crucial role in the overall pain management. However, the literature on the same with respect to Indian context is still lacking. The study was aimed to develop, validate and assess the acceptability and effectiveness of self-instructional educational module among Indian chronic LBP (CLBP) patients.
methodsA prospective single-arm open-label study was conducted in a pain clinic of a tertiary care public hospital in North India with 'Backcare booklet-self-instructional module (SIM)' as an intervention in patients with CLBP. SIM was developed with the intent to provide up-to-date evidence-based information in an easy understanding way to patients with CLBP. 132 patients were administered SIM with a single session of verbal explanation. Pain intensity (numeric rating scale [NRS]), disability, fear-avoidance belief Questionnaire (FABQ), quality of life (EQ5D) and knowledge level were assessed at baseline and after 3 months of intervention. Student's paired
results120 patients successfully completed the 3 months' follow-up. Significant reductions were observed in pain intensity (76[12] vs 55 [15,
conclusionBackcare booklet as an intervention, along with usual pharmacological care is a cost-effective educational medium to promote self-management of CLBP in the clinical outpatient settings.
