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

Intensive interdisciplinary pain treatment (IIPT) effectively treats pediatric patients with highly impairing chronic pain; however, safety and outcomes for patients with comorbid pediatric generalized joint hypermobility (pGJH) have not been rigorously examined. This study assessed the prevalence of injuries and physical and psychosocial outcomes of IIPT for patients with chronic pain with and without pGJH. This study was a retrospective review of patients admitted to an IIPT program providing 40 h of weekly physical and psychological therapies for approximately 4-6 weeks. Joint protective methods were utilized, and all participants had daily assessment by a medical provider, including assessment of injuries. Pain intensity, health-related disability, and social, emotional, and academic functioning were measured via standardized, self- and parent-report measures at baseline, weekly during treatment, and at established follow-up time points of one-, six-, and 12-months post-program completion. Of 304 patients (M age = 15.3 years, SD = 2.1; 83.6% female), 45 (14.8%) were identified to have pGJH. There was no significant association between pGJH and injury during IIPT, x
