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

Background: Little is known about whether the recommended, non-pharmacological treatments for chronic pain yield reductions in healthcare utilization, social costs and increased productivity in actual practice. Methods: The primary aim of this study ( Results: Small and moderate sized improvements in pain, pain interference, and depression observed at post-treatment were mostly maintained at both the 1- and 3-year follow-up. A very similar pattern was observed for health economic outcomes, with 1-year follow-up gains being maintained at long-term follow-up. Baseline psychological Conclusions: The present findings add to a small body of literature indicating that the improvements in pain and related difficulties following multidisciplinary, pain-focused, CBT programs persist at least three years following treatment, and these are accompanied by modest improvements in health economic outcomes over the same interval.
