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
Aim: To discover out the impact of Kinesio Taping (KT) in reduction of pain and disability experienced by pregnant females. Method: Total 30 pregnant females in second trimester were recruited after fulfilling inclusion and exclusion criteria. They were randomized into 2 group. Experimental (A) received KT and Control group (B) sham KT. KT or sham KT was applied on day 1 and removed on day 5. Pain and disability were the results measures of the study. The pain levels were assessed by utilizing Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) on 1st day before treatment (BF) and after treatment (AF), 3rd day, 5th day and 7th day. Disability was evaluated using Oswestry Disability Index in Hindi Version, on day 1 and day 7. Results: Preintervention both the groups were comparable regarding Pain and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores. Post intervention experimental group had markedly decreased VAS and ODI from day 1 to day 7 (VAS Day 1 BF: 43.66 ± 17.31 Vs VAS Day 7: 26.13 ± 13.74; ODI Day 1: 31.80 ± 12.36 Vs ODI Day 7: 17.66 ± 7.30; p < 0.05). In control group VAS and ODI remained same between Day 1 & 7 (VAS Day 1 BF 31.93 ± 14.08, Vs VAS Day 7 32.46 ± 13.68;, ODI Day 1 22.13 ± 15.35 Vs ODI Day 7 22.00 ± 11.73). Conclusions: KT can significantly reduce PGP and disability in pregnant females as compared to sham taping, measured by VAS and ODI scale respectively.
