Figure 2 Mean difference (95% CI) of Kinesio Taping versus sham taping in participants with musculoskeletal conditions for the outcomes pain (A) and disability (B). Note that no pooling is conducted because the clinical conditions of the participants differ. Note that these estimates are based on raw means and SDs only, so some differ slightly from the estimates in Table 4 because more complex analyses were used in the original publications. Asc: ascending; desc: descending; ODI: Oswestry Disability Index; RMDQ: Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire.
