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

For rural women veterans, significant barriers exist in accessing high-quality, multicomponent behavioral pain self-management interventions. As such, a telehealth behavioral pain self-management intervention designed specifically for rural-dwelling women veterans with chronic pain was piloted for this study. This mixed methods, single-arm preliminary study examined the feasibility and acceptability of this intervention and completed a responder analysis. Participants completed surveys before and 1-month following the intervention, and they completed a qualitative interview following the intervention. About one quarter (24%) of potentially eligible participants who were sent a letter about the study consented to participate (
