A 13-Year Long-Term Follow-Up of a Case Report With Continued Improvement in Severe Chronic Neck and Head Pain Alleviated With Chiropractic BioPhysics® Spinal Rehabilitation Protocols.

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
Alleviation of headaches (HAs), neck pain (NP), and disability is a desirable clinical outcome for the billions globally who suffer from these conditions. Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP®) methods may provide an option for head and neck-injured patients. A 62-year-old female historically injured multiple times including two motor vehicle collisions (MVC), and a strike to the face with a hockey puck; all resulting in chronic pain and suffering. The subject sought and received successful treatment in 2016 using this conservative protocol at a facility in the USA. The resolution of symptoms following 36 treatments was previously reported. Following 13 years without treatment beyond home exercises, the subject was re-evaluated and found to be stable in the long term for pain, structural and functional assessment. Thirty-six treatments over 12 weeks in 2016 led to an improvement in numerical pain rating scale (NPRS) for NP (5/10 to 1/10), and HA (9+/10 to 0/10), resolution of NP disability (6/100 to 0/100) as well as normalization of ROM without pain and resumption of all activities of daily living including high-level athletics without pain and disability. A 13-year follow-up found continued stability objectively and subjectively. We provide a case of successful conservative treatment using specific traction, exercises, and spine manipulation procedures. CBP
