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

backgroundCancer-related fatigue and insomnia are common distressing symptoms and may affect mood and performance status.

objectiveThe objective of this study was to describe fatigue, sleep, pain, mood, and performance status and the relationships among these variables in 187 patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) and conduct an analysis using the correlates of fatigue.

methodsData were from baseline measures from the study, using the Profile of Mood States and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Fatigue to assess fatigue, the actigraph to measure sleep, the Wong/Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale to assess pain, the Profile of Mood States to assess mood, and the 6-minute walk test along with a back/leg/chest dynamometer to test muscle strength to assess performance status. Data analysis consisted of descriptive statistics, Pearson and Spearman ρ correlations, and multiple regression analysis using fatigue as the dependent variable. All P values were 2-sided, and P<.05 was considered significant.

resultsPatients with newly diagnosed MM presented with fatigue, pain, sleep and mood disturbances, and diminished functional performance. The regression model, which included all of these variables along with age, sex, and stage of disease, was statistically significant with a large measure of effect. Mood was a significant individual contributor to the model.

conclusionsAmong patients with MM, fatigue, pain, sleep, mood, and functional performance are interrelated. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Interventions are needed to decrease fatigue and pain and to improve sleep, mood, and functional performance.
