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
backgroundThis study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of a supervised group exercise therapy based on the biopsychosocial model introduced simultaneously with antitumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy in anti-TNF-naive patients with active ankylosing spondylitis (AS).
methodsForty-eight patients were divided into two groups: the control group (CG; n = 36) received only anti-TNF therapy, and the study group (SG; n = 12) received the supervised exercise therapy based on the biopsychosocial model in addition to anti-TNF therapy. The measurements of disease activity and functionality were evaluated by The Bath AS Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) and The Bath AS Functional Index (BASFI) respectively. Other outcome measures evaluated biopsychosocial status, emotional state, spinal mobility, pain, fatigue, sleep, and quality of life. All measurements were applied to both groups at baseline and repeated 12 weeks later.
resultsBASDAI and BASFI analyses revealed significant differences between groups in favor of the SG (p < 0.05). At the end of the 12 weeks, the results showed that there were additional improvements in all outcome measurement parameters in the SG compared to the CG. DISCUSSION: The supervised group exercise therapy based on the biopsychosocial model introduced simultaneously with anti-TNF therapy is more effective than only anti-TNF therapy in anti-TNF-naive patients with active AS.
