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

The relationship between fatigue perception and regional gray matter volume (rGMV) has seldom been studied in healthy adults. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze sex differences in the correlation between rGMV and fatigue perception using Chalder's fatigue questionnaire (CFQ). The CFQ was used to analyze the sexual features of rGMV related to the degree of perceived fatigue in 2955 healthy adults (male = 1560, female = 1395) of various ages (20-89 years, median 56). A higher CFQ score denotes a higher perceived fatigue level by the participant. According to the CFQ scores in males, the volumes of the right orbital part of the inferior frontal gyrus and left precuneus were negatively correlated (i.e., smaller rGMV had a higher CFQ score), whereas the left angular gyrus was positively correlated. In females, the right inferior temporal gyrus was negative, whereas the left middle temporal gyrus and right putamen were positive (i.e., larger rGMV had a higher CFQ score). The lack of identified regions in this large-scale study between males and females might be related to sex differences in clinical or pathological fatigue morbidities. Additionally, the sex differences in the negative or positive correlations between rGMV and fatigue perception may contribute to a better understanding of the neuronal mechanism in the early stages of fatigue development.
