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.

Abstract

Background: Fatigue is a frequently reported symptom of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), having a negative impact on Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL). Patients' experiences of this have not been researched in IBD. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with adults with Crohn's Disease from out-patient clinics in the United Kingdom. Interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim, then analysed using thematic analysis. Results: Fourteen participant interviews were conducted. Three key themes were identified: 1) 'The new normal' established through adaptation and acceptance; 2) 'Energy as a resource' describing attempts to better manage fatigue through planning and prioritising tasks; 3) 'Keeping healthy' encompasses participants' beliefs that 'good health' allows better management of fatigue. Conclusion: Participants establish a 'new' normality, through maintaining the same or similar level of employment/education activities. However, this is often at the expense of social activities. Further research is required to explore patient led self-management interventions in IBD fatigue.
