Guidelines for chronic pain in adult spinal cord injury population: Scoping review.
Article in The South African journal of physiotherapy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Background: Chronic pain among survivors of spinal cord injury (SCI) hurts physical and mental health. Persons with SCI have demonstrated dissatisfaction with the management of their chronic pain. Objectives: This study aimed to identify existing clinical practice guidelines for chronic pain in the SCI population. Method: A scoping review was conducted across various databases available at the University of the Western Cape, in addition to guideline clearing houses (BioMedCentral, Cambridge Journals Online, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Medline [EbscoHost], Medline [Pubmed], Sabinet Reference, SAGE Journals Online, ScienceDirect, SCOPUS, Wiley Online Library, Springerlink, PubMed, Guideline Central, and Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality). The population consisted of adults with SCI, and the interventions that were included were pharmacological and nonpharmacological management of chronic pain. Guidelines that met the inclusion criteria were critically appraised by two reviewers from this study using the AGREE II instrument. Inter-rater reliability was calculated using SPSS 27, and Cohen's kappa coefficients were established. Results: Five articles were included in the data extraction, analysis and appraisal. Two guidelines were rated as high quality, according to the AGREE II tool. In addition, most guidelines focused on neuropathic pain (NeuP) and only one guideline included nociceptive pain and NeuP. Conclusion: One guideline met the objectives of this scoping review. Clinical implications: Guidelines developed in the future should include a screening tool to identify the specific type of pain and distinguish peripheral NeuP from central NeuP.
