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

Seriously ill patients often experience persistent pain. As a part of a comprehensive repertoire of pain interventions, palliative care clinicians can help by using behavioral pain management. Behavioral pain management refers to evidence-based psychosocial interventions to reduce pain intensity and enhance functional outcomes and quality of life. Conceptualized using the biopsychosocial model, techniques involve promoting helpful behaviors (e.g., activity pacing, stretching, and relaxation exercises) and modifying underlying patterns of thinking, feeling, and communicating that can exacerbate pain. The authors have expertise in pain management, clinical health psychology, geropsychology, behavioral science, and palliative medicine. The article reviews the current evidence for behavioral interventions for persistent pain and provides 10 recommendations for behavioral pain management.
