Development, implementation and evaluation of a digital treatment for adolescents with chronic pain: a protocol for a multi-phase study.
Article in Frontiers in digital health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued.

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.

Abstract
Chronic pain in adolescents is an increasing public health concern with a significant physical, psychological, and social impact. This study aims to develop, implement, and evaluate DigiDOL-Ad, a digital psychosocial treatment for adolescents with chronic pain, supplemented by dedicated websites for their parents and teachers. This multicenter study will be conducted in four phases: (1) Development of the intervention framework and foundational planning; (2) Focus groups with adolescents with chronic pain, their parents, teachers, healthcare professionals and health authorities to identify specific needs and tailor the psychosocial treatment and related components; (3) Iterative usability testing of the digital treatment, using an a hermeneutical circle methodology to refine the design based on participant feedback; and (4) Evaluation of DigiDOL-Ad through a pre-treatment, post-treatment, and 3-month follow-up assessment. DigiDOL-Ad has the potential to improve the quality of life for adolescents with chronic pain. By leveraging digital health technologies, this innovative approach could establish a new benchmark for treating adolescents with chronic pain, emphasizing interdisciplinary and stakeholder-driven care.
