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

Introduction: Vitality is a construct based on traditional vitalism, and is a concept similar to energy (Qi), passion, and motivation as the essential power possessed by organisms. Recently, various methods and tools have been designed to evaluate vitality as a health indicator. This study aimed to develop and validate an Integrative Vitality Scale (IVS) based on traditional Eastern medicine and modern psychology. Methods: We conducted two online surveys and one pre-post comparison with Korean adults. Descriptive statistics and factor analysis were performed for scale development, and correlation and regression analysis were performed for validation. Results: Exploratory ( Discussion: These findings suggested that the IVS is a valid and reliable tool for assessing physical and psychological vitality. Furthermore, the IVS could be used as a clinical indicator to predict symptoms related to low energy, such as depression and fatigue, and as an indicator of sustainable well-being.
