Frequency of mental disorders among chronic pain patients with or without fibromyalgia in Japan.
Article in Neuropsychopharmacology reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
aimTo explore the characteristics of psychiatric morbidity in chronic pain patients who present with or without fibromyalgia.
methodsPatients are referred to our chronic pain clinic from primary medical institutions, as we are a secondary medical institution. Although some patients have chronic pain, they have no clear organic disorder such as rheumatoid arthritis to account for the pain. Among the 367 new patients seen during the period from March 2009 to August 2012, 347 patients underwent psychiatric evaluation in face-to-face interviews with mental health specialists before a physical examination.
resultsOf the 347 patients examined, at least one psychiatric diagnosis was made for 94.6%. The average number of DSM-IV-TR diagnoses was 1.46 in the 330 chronic pain patients who had at least one psychiatric diagnosis. The breakdown of the number of psychodiagnoses was one in 60.8%, two in 27.1%, three in 4.9%, and more than three in 2.3% chronic pain patients with or without fibromyalgia. In fibromyalgia patients, the highest relative frequencies were found for somatoform disorders (76%), followed by dysthymic disorder (17%) and major depressive disorder (15%). In patients without fibromyalgia, the highest relative frequencies were found for somatoform disorders (64%), followed by major depressive disorder (15%) and dysthymic disorder (14%). Psychiatric disorders were found in 96.9% of fibromyalgia patients, and in 93.5% of chronic pain patients without fibromyalgia in Japan (no significant difference using chi-square test).
conclusionResults show that chronic pain patients with or without fibromyalgia are extremely likely to be diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder.
