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
purposeIn this study, we aimed to determine the relationship between spinal posture and pain in female workers with pain complaints through posture analysis using video recordings, with the goal of establishing a foundation for corrective exercise programs.
methodsThe subjects of the study, female workers at Company H's call center, were divided into non-pain (n = 17), neck-shoulder pain (n = 17), and low back pain (n = 16) groups. The differences between groups and the relationship between angles were analyzed by measuring seven body angles related to posture, which were recorded via video of each participant in both sitting and standing positions.
resultsSignificant differences were observed between the neck-shoulder pain and non-pain groups in the neck slope angle (sitting and standing), upper cervical angle (sitting), and thoracic spine angle (sitting and standing). Moreover, there were significant differences between the low back pain and non-pain groups in the neck slope and lumbar spine angles in the sitting position.
conclusionThe neck slope angle is an important indicator of the relationship between spinal posture and pain. These findings suggest that corrective exercises targeting forward head posture may help alleviate both neck-shoulder and low back pain.
