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.

2 · The registry

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

The cognitive-evaluative (C-E) dimension of pain is commonly observed in patients with a relatively long duration of pain. However, little is known about the effects of pain relapse on the C-E dimension of pain. Moreover, the improvement process of the C-E dimension of pain following treatment is unknown. The objective of this case report was to (a) demonstrate that the C-E dimension was affected in the acute phase of neuropathic pain in cases of pain relapse, and (b) demonstrate the improvement process of the C-E dimension of pain. A woman was diagnosed with low back pain (LBP) and sciatica. The patient had previously experienced symptoms of LBP and sciatica; thus, this episode was a case of pain relapse. At the beginning of rehabilitation, the C-E dimension of pain was present in addition to the sensory-discriminative (S-D) dimension of pain. It was observed that improvement of the C-E dimension of pain was delayed in comparison with that of the S-D dimension of pain. The C-E dimension of pain was observed with pain relapse even though it was in the acute phase of pain. This case provides a novel insight into the C-E dimension of pain. Moreover, the delay in improving the C-E dimension of pain indicates a difference in the improvement process for each pain dimension.
