Independent associations of fatigue with cognitive function and quality of life in multiple sclerosis: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map.

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.

Abstract
Introduction: The aim of the study is to investigate the association between fatigue, cognitive impairment, and overall QoL in individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Methods: Fifty-one patients with MS with a confirmed diagnosis of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), according to established diagnostic criteria were enrolled. Data were collected at a single time point to examine associations between fatigue, cognitive functioning, neurological disability, and health-related quality of life (QoL). All participants were submitted to a standardized neurological examination, Fatigue symptoms were assessed using the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS) and Fatigue Scale for Motor and Cognitive Functions (FSMC). Cognitive profiles were evaluated with the Brief Repeatable Battery of Neuropsychological Tests (BRB-N), overall Quality of Life with the Multiple Sclerosis Quality Ff Life (MSQOL-54) and the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) to evaluate the disability status. Results: Our findings indicate a significative correlation between general FATIGUE and multiple QoL outcomes. Specifically, fatigue was strongly correlated with Health Perception ( Discussion: These results contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of disease burden in MS, highlighting fatigue as a key factor that interacts with multiple dimensions of patient functioning. Clinical trial registration: Identifier (NCT05783999).
