Evaluating the benefits of a second pain treatment following a clinical trial.
Article in Rehabilitation psychology, 2024. 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
objectiveTo examine the value of including an open label phase after a clinical trial of pain treatments by examining participant characteristics and potential benefits.
methodSecondary data analysis. Veterans with chronic pain who completed a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing hypnosis, mindfulness meditation, and pain education were invited to participate in an open label phase. Average and worst pain intensities, pain interference, and depression were assessed pre- and postopen label phase; global impressions of change and treatment satisfaction were assessed at postopen label phase only.
resultsOf those who were offered the open label phase, 40% (
conclusionsThere appears to be some value to adding an open label phase to the end of a trial of pain treatments. A substantial portion of study participants elected to participate and reported it to be beneficial. Exploring data from an open label phase can illuminate important aspects of patient experience, barriers to and facilitators of care, as well as treatment preferences.
