Sensorimotor, cognitive and affective behavior according to perceived level of disability in patients with chronic low back pain: an observational cross-sectional study.
Observational study in Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesThe aim was to evaluate the influence of the level of disability on sensorimotor and psychological variables in nonspecific chronic low back pain (NCLBP).
methodsA cross-sectional observational study was performed with 90 participants, divided into one group with NCLBP (60 participants) and one asymptomatic group (30 participants). Symptomatic participants were divided into a "major" or "minor" disability group using the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire score, resulting in two groups of 30 participants. All participants completed a series of self-administered questionnaires and performed sensorimotor tests.
resultsThere were no statistically significant differences in the sensorimotor variables except in pain intensity, which was greater in the NCLBP group with high lumbar disability. There were statistically significant differences between the symptomatic groups in the degree of self-efficacy, pain catastrophism and kinesiophobia.
conclusionsPatients with NCLBP and high levels of disability present greater pain intensity and significantly poorer results in psychological variables compared with those with NCLBP and low levels of disability. In contrast, there were no differences for sensorimotor variables between the patients with NCLBP and high levels of disability and those with low levels of disability.
