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

Post-exertional malaise (PEM) is a defining symptom of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), yet its molecular underpinnings remain elusive. This study investigated the temporal-longitudinal DNA methylation changes associated with PEM using a structured two-day maximum repeated effort cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) protocol involving pre- and two post-exercise blood samplings from five ME/CFS patients. Cardiopulmonary measurements revealed complex heterogeneous profiles among the patients compared to typical healthy controls, and VO
