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

Our study investigated the associations between the clinical benefits of telehealth-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (tele-CBT-I) and the salience network in fibromyalgia (FM). Thirty-five FM patients with comorbid insomnia were recruited and assigned into two groups: the tele-CBT-I group (n = 17) or the treatment-as-usual (TAU) group (n = 18). At baseline and post-treatment, clinical status was assessed using standardized scales, including the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), Brief Pain Inventory, Numeric Pain Rating scale, Beck Depression Intervention version II, Beck Anxiety Intervention, Situational Fatigue Scale, and Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaires. Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging was collected. We compared within- and between-group differences in clinical changes and functional connectivity (FC) of the salience network. A factor analysis of significant FCs was performed. Correlation analyses between clinical symptoms and salience FCs were conducted. The tele-CBT-I group showed sleep quality improvements after treatment that were greater than those in the TAU group (p-value = 0.038). After treatment, tele-CBT-I decreased FCs of cortical regions and increased FCs of subcortical regions compared to the TAU group. Additionally, factor analysis grouped the significant FCs into cortical factors and subcortical factors. The cortical factor value, representing the involvement of specific cortical regions of the salience network by the factor analysis, was significantly associated with ISI scores in the tele-CBT-I group (p-value = 0.0002). In conclusion, tele-CBT-I might be an adjuvant approach to improve sleep quality and normalize cortical and subcortical functions of the salience network in FM patients with comorbid insomnia.
