The frequency and effect of fibromyalgia in patients with Behçet's disease.
Article in Turkish journal of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesThis study aims to investigate the scores of depression, anxiety, sleep and quality of life (QoL), to identify the prevalence of fibromyalgia (FM) in Behçet's disease (BD), and to evaluate whether there is a difference between BD patients with and without FM in these scores. PATIENTS AND
methodsBetween March 2008 and January 2009, 97 patients with BD and 95 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were included in the study. The patients with BD were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of FM. All participants were evaluated by the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36).
resultsCompared to the controls, FM prevalence was higher (19.6% vs 3.2%) with increased BDI and BAI scores, while the subscores of SF-36 including physical function, physical role, pain, general health, social function, and emotional role decreased in BD patients (for all p<0.001). All BD patients with FM were females (n=19), while only 46% of BD patients without FM were females (n=36) (p<0.001). In BD patients with FM, compared to female BD patients without FM, the mean age (p=0.017), disease duration (p=0.028), and BDI scores (p=0.017) were significantly higher, while the PSQI scores (p=0.001) and SF-36 subscores, except general health (p=0.114), were significantly lower (for all p<0.05).
conclusionOur study results suggest that patients with BD have an increased severity of depression and anxiety, higher frequency of FM, and worsened QoL than healthy individuals. In addition, the presence of FM seems to be related with female sex, longer disease duration, older age, depression, sleep disturbance, and poor QoL in BD patients.
