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

objectivesThe aim of the study was to examine the short-term changes of elastic adhesive tape application on pain intensity and the range of motion (ROM), cervical region proprioception sense, and cervical flexor endurance of patients with chronic neck pain.

methodsThirty-four patients (male: 26, female: 8) between ages 20 and 55 with chronic neck pain having the complaints for at least 6 months were included in the study. Demographic information, pain intensity, cervical ROM, cervical flexor endurance, and cervical proprioception sense of the patients were evaluated. Results were examined 2 times. The first evaluation was conducted prior to elastic adhesive tape application and the second one was conducted 24 hours after the procedure.

resultsThe mean age of the patients was 39.56 ± 17.09 years, average height was 165.65 ± 9.83 cm, average weight was 71.44 ± 15.79 kg, and average body mass index was 26.24 ± 6.62. A statistically significant difference was found between the measurement results of pain intensity, ROM of the joint in flexion, extension, right and left rotation, and cervical flexor endurance before and 24 hours after the application of elastic adhesive tape (

conclusionThe results of this study revealed short-term changes following the use of elastic adhesive tape on cervical flexor endurance, pain, and cervical proprioception sense for patients with chronic pain.
