The Benefits of Cognitive Therapeutic Exercise in Symptomatic Arnold-Chiari Syndrome Type I: A Case Report on Gait, Balance, and Pain Management.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundChiari malformation is a rare congenital condition in which the cerebellar tonsils herniate through the foramen magnum, causing symptoms related to compression of the surrounding structures. Rehabilitation plays a key role in the pre- and post-operative management of the syndrome, as it can improve strength, range of motion, motor coordination, pain management, and performance of activities of daily living.
methodsThis article presents the case of a 43-year-old woman with Chiari malformation 1B who underwent resection of the filum terminale. She presented as an outpatient at the University Hospital "G. Martino" in Messina, complaining of difficulty walking, balance problems, lumbar pain, and heaviness in the lower limbs. Following a multidisciplinary assessment, she underwent an 11-month rehabilitation protocol based on cognitive therapeutic exercise.
resultsThe patient achieved significant improvements in pain, mental confusion, and quality of life after treatment and at the 12-month follow-up.
conclusionsThe results of this study highlight the significant benefits of cognitive therapeutic exercises in Chiari malformation, with improvements in several key areas, including quality of life, pain management, and ability to perform activities of daily living.
