Grit and Chronic Pain: Associations with Distress, Catastrophizing, Interference, and Control.

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
Individuals with chronic pain frequently experience emotional distress, negative beliefs, functional limitations, and poor sense of control. Grit, the ability to persist toward goals through passion and perseverance, has been linked to enhanced coping in chronic medical conditions but has received limited attention in the context of chronic pain. This cross-sectional study evaluated the relationship of grit to adjustment in participants with chronic pain (N = 58). Controlling for pain severity, conscientiousness, and neuroticism, greater grit was associated with lower pain catastrophizing (p = .000) and pain interference (p = .02) and greater life control (p = .02); grit was not significantly related to pain distress (p = .07). Prospective, longitudinal research on the relationship between grit and pain outcomes is warranted.
