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.

Analyses identified three main themes and subsequent sub-themes: (1) Conclusions: People with chronic pain experienced positive behavioral and/or psychological changes in terms of cognition and coping after 12 months access to the EPIO digital pain self-management program. The most prominent changes included increased understanding of the connection between own thoughts, feelings, and behavior, gaining concrete strategies to cope with everyday life living with pain, and utilizing these strategies to reduce pain and interference of pain, as well as to improve emotion regulation and psychological wellbeing.
