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

A common recommendation to improve the management of low back pain (LBP) is the use of interdisciplinary teams. However, many challenges remain in establishing interdisciplinary care, particularly in community-based primary care settings. This study explored patients' experiences with interdisciplinary care for LBP using an applied phenomenological research approach. Semistructured open-ended interviews were conducted with fifteen adults enrolled in a 6-month interdisciplinary LBP program within an integrated care network. The analysis included detailed descriptions of participants' experiences and interpretations by the researchers of the main themes: (i) challenging start-"It's intimidating," (ii) desire for flexibility-"I didn't need as much," (iii) better collaboration-"They are all together," (iv) grasping the pain issue-"They helped," (v) care was responsive to needs and experience-"Always centered on me, not general," (vi) meanings of recovery-"I'm able to function." Participants viewed the interdisciplinary LBP program as the culmination of a long journey toward recovery. The findings identified as important to patients contribute to our understanding of how to optimize patient-centered care for individuals living with chronic pain.
