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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo explore the factors associated with the psychosocial quality of life (QoL) among adolescents with rare diseases (RDs).

methodsWe used cross-sectional design to collect data in February 2016 and February 2018, respectively, in China through a structured questionnaire. Those included in the study were adolescents aged between 10 and 18 who had a doctor-diagnosed RD. Multivariable linear regression was used to identify the predictors associated with psychosocial QoL among adolescents with RDs.

resultsThe study included 737 adolescents (28.4% girls). The mean score of their psychological QoL was 43.79 (SD = 20.44). Multivariable linear regression analysis suggests that girls had a lower psychological QoL than boys (adjusted coefficient = -1.87, 95% CI = [-3.53, -0.21]); and receiving an education (adjusted coefficient = 6.53, 95% CI = [4.47, 8.33]), living with parents (adjusted coefficient = 6.45, 95% CI = [3.94, 8.97]), and physical function (adjusted coefficient = 0.53, 95% CI = [0.49, 0.56]) were positively associated with psychological QoL.

conclusionThis study reveals the status of psychological QoL among adolescents with RDs. The evidence provided can increase our understanding of the factors associated with psychological QoL among adolescents with RDs and can help formulate policies and put concrete actions into practice.
