The relationship between the symptom of fatigue and the functioning of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases after surgery.
Article in Przeglad gastroenterologiczny, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
introductionThe occurrence of fatigue in patients suffering from inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is influenced by pain, frequent bowel movements, stress associated with symptoms and time of their occurrence reaction of surroundings, fear for their own health, sleep disturbances, side effects of pharmacological treatment, physical and mental exhaustion, hindered social contacts and difficulties at work.
aimTo evaluate the fatigue and the assessment of functioning of patients with IBD, who were treated surgically. MATERIAL AND
methodsTo evaluate the functioning of patients, a Polish version of the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire was used. To evaluate the occurrence of fatigue in studied subjects, a Polish version of the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy - Fatigue Scale was used. The activity of disease was evaluated with the use of the Crohn's Disease Activity Index for patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and the Clinical Activity Index for patients with ulcerative colitis (UC).
resultsBefore surgery, there was no significant difference between CD and UC patients, with regard to the mean FACIT-F (28.76 for CD and 28.76 for UC,
conclusionsSurgical treatment significantly reduces the fatigue symptom in patients with IBD. The severity of fatigue correlates with disease activity and functioning in the respective areas.
