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
Background: About 65% of veterans report chronic pain in the last 3 months. Whole health is a team-based approach to health care that emphasizes proactive and patient-centered care. This mixed-methods study sought to determine the patient and support person experience of meeting simultaneously with a whole health pain interdisciplinary team. Methods: Self-reported satisfaction from a program-specific survey was collected from veterans and support persons at the Salem Veterans Affairs Healthcare System (SVAHCS) following a meeting with an interdisciplinary pain team that included interventional pain, psychology, physical therapy, pharmacy, and nutrition health care professionals. Results: The survey was completed by 32 support persons and 144 veterans. Twenty percent reported dissatisfaction with previous pain care at SVAHCS. The mean overall satisfaction with the pain interdisciplinary team was 9.2 on a 10-point scale, and all respondents reported that they would recommend the experience. Conclusions: Patients meeting simultaneously with all interdisciplinary team pain care members may be an efficient model of pain care with high patient satisfaction for rural veterans who tend to experience significant barriers to care. Future studies of these simultaneous meetings with pain interdisciplinary teams may be warranted.
