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

objectiveThis study aimed to investigate differences in protein expression, protein function, and epigenetic modifications related to histone phosphorylation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells among patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) presenting two common Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndrome types compared with healthy controls.

methodsThree groups of participants were selected from the Medical Examination Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine between January 2024 and December 2024. The first group consisted of 10 CFS patients with the Qi and Blood Deficiency syndrome pattern; the second group included 10 CFS patients with the Liver Depression and Spleen Deficiency syndrome pattern; and the third group comprised 10 healthy controls. Phosphopeptide enrichment analysis was employed to detect and identify differentially expressed proteins, followed by Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis.

resultsDifferences were observed between both TCM syndrome types of CFS (Qi and Blood Deficiency, Liver Depression and Spleen Deficiency) and the healthy control group in various biological processes and cellular components, including intracellular signal transduction, actin filament bundling, and cortical cytoskeleton organization.

conclusionMultiple processes, structures, and functions-such as intracellular signaling, presynaptic modulation of chemical synaptic transmission, actin filament bundling, cortical cytoskeleton organization, SH3 domain binding, and profilin binding-are associated with the occurrence and development of CFS.
