Impact of pain sensitisation on the quality of life of patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Article in RMD open, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06289218 (Kinesio Taping Versus Interferential Current Therapy in Treating Knee Osteoarthritis), which is not on this map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
objectivesWe aim to evaluate the effect on different ways of classifying pain sensitisation on impact and quality of life (QoL) in knee osteoarthritis (KOA).
methodsWe used baseline data from a cohort of consecutive patients with KOA listed for arthroplasty. We collected demographics and number of painful body sites. We measured pressure pain thresholds at the right forearm (PPT
results233 patients (80% female, mean age 66 years) included in the analysis; 7.3%, 11.6% and 4.7% were classified as having pain sensitisation by widespread pain, low PPT
conclusionPatients with KOA with pain sensitisation have poorer QoL compared with those without, regardless of classification method. Different criteria defined patients with different pattern of QoL impact.
