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

Background: The Pain Resilience Scale (PRS), which measures behavioral perseverance and the ability to regulate emotions and cognition despite ongoing pain, lacks an Arabic version. Objectives: This study aimed to translate, culturally adapt, and validate an Arabic version of the Pain Resilience Scale (PRS-A) among Lebanese adults. Methods: Phase 1 involved translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the PRS into Arabic. Phase 2 examined the reliability and validity of the PRS-A. A convenience sample of 154 Lebanese adults with chronic musculoskeletal pain completed the PRS-A and self-report measures of pain catastrophizing, pain self-efficacy, pain intensity and interference, depression and anxiety, and quality of life. Results: The PRS-A yielded a two-factor structure with factor 1 representing "cognitive/affective positivity" and factor 2 representing "behavioral perseverance," accounting for 41.93% and 15.15% of the variance in pain resilience, respectively. Total PRS-A score ( Conclusion: The PRS-A demonstrated validity and acceptable reliability among Arab-speaking individuals with chronic musculoskeletal pain, suggesting its potential utility for assessing pain resilience within this population.
