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

purposeChronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) is a costly public health threat that is closely related to mental health. This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the status and factors related to CMP in young males.

methodsA total of 126 young males with CMP were randomly sampled between June 20 and October 19, 2023. Demographic information was collected using the Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).

resultsModerate-to-mild CMP was showed (15.51 ± 10.07). Older age, lower education level, shorter sleeping hours, and more severe CMP were associated with lower mental health. Specifically, hierarchical regression and path analysis revealed that sleeping hours partially mediated the relationship between chronic musculoskeletal pain and mental health (coefficient = 0.249, p < 0 0.001).

conclusionRelated risk factors are important for targeted intervention and treatment of CMP. Sleep intervention is conducive to depression and anxiety recovery in individuals with CMP. Based on the results of this study, further measures can be taken to mitigate the negative consequences of CMP on public mental health.
