Beyond Physical Disability: The Social Cognition Challenges in Quality of Life Among Multiple Sclerosis Patients.
Article in Healthcare (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesSocial cognition impairment is common in multiple sclerosis (MS) and could implicate the well-being of patients by promoting difficulties in social interactions. This study investigated the relationship between social cognition and quality of life (QoL) in patients with MS (PwMSs).
methodsIn total, 100 PwMSs, enrolled as per distinct criteria, underwent neuropsychological assessment using validated questionnaires and scales. To assess QoL, Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life-54 (MSQOL-54) questionnaires, both physical and mental, were utilized. The components of social cognition were evaluated using the Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test (RMET) and the Faux Pas task. The type of MS and years since diagnosis were also recorded.
resultsThe RMET score (β = 0.336;
conclusionsSocial cognition deficits are crucial for the social functioning of patients with MS, inevitably affecting both physical and mental aspects of QoL.
