Traditional Mongolian Rhythmical Vibration Therapy for Low Back Pain: Acute Mechanisms and Three-Year Sustainability.
Article in Healthcare (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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/
objectivesTraditional Mongolian Rhythmical Vibration Therapy (RVT) is a manual intervention utilizing low-frequency mechanical oscillations, yet its biomechanical effects lack objective quantification. The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of manual RVT on paraspinal muscle stiffness and its long-term sustainability on the quality of life (QoL) in patients with chronic low back pain (LBP).
methodsTo evaluate treatment mechanisms and long-term sustainability, this investigation utilized an acute comparative framework (
resultsA Manual RVT yielded statistically significant and greater reduction in paraspinal muscle stiffness compared to mechanical vibration (
conclusionsManual RVT is associated with reduced paraspinal muscle stiffness in chronic LBP patients. The integration of this manual therapy with a Terrenkur maintenance regimen appears to support the maintenance of functional and quality of life improvements over a three-year period. However, given the observational design of the study, these outcomes must be interpreted cautiously, and randomized controlled trials are required to establish absolute therapeutic efficacy.
