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
This paper presents a case of a 35-year-old female patient diagnosed with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) type I and treated over a two-month period with a novel low-frequency sound-transduced focal pulsed stimulus. The patient received 21 treatments consisting of focally applied sound sweeps in the 15-100 Hz range. Outcome measures included the Visual Analogue Scale for pain, five physical assessment parameters, medication, and the Pain Catastrophizing Scale. A follow-up was conducted at six months. The results show that the patient's low-back pain level was substantially reduced after treatment and after six months. CRPS-related peripheral pain was strongly reduced but had some rebound after six months. The low-frequency sound-transduced focal pulsed stimulus shows potential as a non-invasive treatment for CRPS and deserves controlled clinical trials.
