Effect of fatigue on quality of life in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: the chain mediating role of resilience and self-efficacy.
Article in Advances in rheumatology (London, England), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
objectivesExploring the effect of resilience and self-efficacy in mediating the chain between fatigue and quality of life(QOL) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
methodsFrom June 2022 to November 2022, 423 RA patients were chosen by a convenience sample method from two tertiary care facilities in Chengdu, Sichuan Province. General Information Questionnaire, Bristol Multidimensional Scale of Fatigue in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis, SF-12 Health Survey Short Form, Chinese version of the ten-item psychological Resilience Scale, and Chinese-language Arthritis Self-Efficacy Scale, an 8-element version, were among the questionnaires used.
resultsIn the physical component summary( PCS), self-efficacy, psychological resilience, and self-efficacy were all significantly mediated by fatigue (total effect mediated 8.88%). In the mental component summary (MCS), fatigue (total effect mediated 10.79%), self-efficacy (total effect mediated 8.99%), psychological resilience, and self-efficacy (total effect mediated 2.01%) were all significantly mediated by fatigue.
conclusionFatigue in RA patients can affect the quality of life both directly and indirectly through the mediating effects of psychological resilience, self-efficacy, and the chain mediating effect of psychological resilience-self-efficacy.
