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

Currently, there is no consensus on the best rehabilitation program to perform for nonspecific chronic low back pain (NSCLBP). However, multimodal exercises, education, and group-based sessions seem to be beneficial. We, therefore, launched such a treatment program and aimed to evaluate its effectiveness in improving patient health status. We retrospectively analyzed the records of 23 NSCLB patients who followed the MyBack program at La Tour hospital from 2020 to 2022 (25 sessions, 8 weeks). Patients were evaluated before and after intervention using pain on a visual analog scale (pVAS), Roland−Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ), Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK), and the EuroQol-5D-3L (EQ-5D-3L). Responder rates were calculated using minimal clinically important differences. Patients reported a significant reduction (p < 0.05) in the pVAS (5.3 ± 1.2 vs. 3.1 ± 1.6), RMDQ (8.8 ± 3.3 vs. 4.0 ± 3.7), PCS (24.5 ± 9.4 vs. 11.7 ± 7.9) and TSK (41.5 ± 9.2 vs. 32.7 ± 7.0). The EQ-5D-3L also statistically improved (score: 0.59 ± 0.14 vs. 0.73 ± 0.07; and VAS: 54.8 ± 16.8 vs. 67.0 ± 15.2). The responder rates were 78% for the pVAS and PCS, 74% for the RMDQ and TSK, and only 26% for the EQ-5D-3L. The MyBack program combining education with multimodal group exercises led to satisfactory clinical, functional, and psychosocial outcomes.
