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.

Abstract

objectiveThe purpose of this study was to develop a video exercise-based mobile application and investigate its effectiveness in terms of pain, function, expectation, and satisfaction in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).

methodsA randomized controlled trial was carried out with 52 individuals with knee OA. Participants were randomly allocated into two groups: the mobile application group (MAG) (n = 26) and the control group (CG) (n = 26). MAG received the two-month rehabilitation program via the developed application. CG was given paper-based exercise forms with the same protocol. Participants' pain, expectation, and satisfaction levels were assessed with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and function was assessed with the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). All assessments were performed at baseline and after 8 weeks.

resultsBoth MAG and CG showed statistically significant improvement in VAS-rest, VAS-activity, WOMAC-pain, WOMAC-stiffness, WOMAC-function, and WOMAC-total scores (p < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference between MAG and CG for all pain and function scores (p > 0.05). In addition, no difference was observed between the two groups regarding expectation-satisfaction changes (p > 0.05). Besides, expectation-satisfaction change was not significantly different within each group (p > 0.05).

conclusionsRehabilitation presented with the mobile application was effective regarding pain and function. However, rehabilitation via mobile application did not provide additional contribution to pain, function, expectation-satisfaction compared to usual rehabilitation. Differences in change for function and satisfaction exceeded the minimal clinically important difference (MCID), favoring MAG.
