[Effectiveness of inpatient interdisciplinary multimodal pain therapy (IMPT) in patients with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) : A retrospective study].

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
backgroundThe primary symptom of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is pain. Interdisciplinary multimodal pain therapy (IMPT) is the gold standard of treatment. The purpose of this study was to identify the beneficial effect of inpatient IMPT on pain level, sensation, perception and impairment in patients with CRPS. QUESTION: The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of full-term IMPT on pain intensity, pain perception, pain processing, and pain impairment in patients with CRPS.
methodsIn 265 patients with CRPS, pain level was retrospectively assessed by the numeric rating scale for pain (NRS), the Pain Perception Scale (SES) and the Pain Management Questionnaire (FESV) at the beginning and end of IMPT.
resultsThere was a significant reduction in the average and highest pain level on the NRS, a significant improvement in the affective experience of pain and cognitive pain management, as well as pain-related mental impairment. All patients improved significantly in resting and relaxation techniques. With regard to pain-related helplessness and depression, patients with mental comorbidity benefitted most. Patients undergoing invasive procedures in the form of peripheral nerve blockage showed no significantly improved outcome with regard to the tested parameters. DISCUSSION: The current study demonstrated that IMPT has a highly beneficial effect on the level, experience and processing of pain in patients with CRPS.
