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

purposeThis study aimed to A) evaluate changes in pain and function following an outpatient interdisciplinary pain management program (IPMP) for children with different chronic pain conditions and B) explore differences in pain and function at baseline and discharge for different diagnoses.

methodsA retrospective chart review was performed for 488 children who participated in an outpatient IPMP. Children's pain and physical, social, and emotional functioning were assessed at initial evaluation, discharge, and one-to-two-month follow-up. Patients were stratified by diagnosis (complex regional pain syndrome [CRPS], headache, musculoskeletal pain, visceral pain, and widespread pain) to evaluate differences in pain and functioning at baseline and discharge.

resultsChildren's pain and function improved from initial evaluation to discharge. Those with headache and musculoskeletal pain exhibited better baseline physical and emotional functioning than other diagnostic groups (

conclusionChildren with CRPS, visceral pain, and widespread pain undergoing treatment in an IPMP exhibited the most impaired baseline functioning, while those with musculoskeletal pain and headache were least impaired. All exhibited improvements in pain and function following the IPMP.
