The Effect of Fatigue and Pain Self- Efficacy on Health-Related Quality of Life Among Patients with Multiple Sclerosis.
Article in Materia socio-medica, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06622200 (The Effects of Mindfulness-based Intervention on Trait Mindfulness, Cognitive Reappraisal, Behavioral Suppression, and Quality of Life Among Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis.), which is not on this map.

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

Abstract
introductionHealth-related quality of life is a major issue among patients with Multiple sclerosis (MS).
aimTo explore the effect of fatigue and pain self-efficacy on health-related quality of life among patients with MS.
methodsBetween March and May 2018, 85 MS patients from a large Hospital of Athens region completed the questionnaires: a) Missoula-VITAS Quality of Life Index-15, which examines 5 dimensions of quality of life, b) Pain Self Efficacy Questionnaire which measures the pain self-efficacy that an individual perceives, c) Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS) which measures fatigue, d) a questionnaire about the sociodemographic elements. Statistical analysis was performed using the IBM SPSS Statistics version 21. The significance level was set up to 0.001.
resultsFatigue might predict the dimension of quality of life "Function" while Pain Self-Efficacy might, also, predict the dimension of quality of life "Interpersonal". A strong correlation was found between the dimensions of quality of life "Well-being" and "Transcendent" and between "Interpersonal" and Pain Self-Efficacy. The total score of fatigue was strongly correlated with Physical Fatigue and very strongly correlated with Mental Fatigue.
conclusionFatigue and Pain Self-Efficacy are important predictors of the dimensions of quality of life among patients with MS. Pain in MS has to be taken into serious consideration in every patient with MS.
