Quality of Life in Patients with Functional Dyspepsia: A Comparative Study.
Article in Middle East journal of digestive diseases, 2026. 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
Introduction: Dyspepsia severely affects patients' well-being and quality of life. The effect of psychosocial factors on symptom severity and generation, particularly their impact on clinical management, warrants further investigation. Thus, this study aimed to assess quality of life (QoL) in patients with functional dyspepsia. Methods: This was a comparative study on a sample of patients with dyspepsia and a comparison group. The diagnosis of dyspepsia was based on the Rome IV criteria, and the Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) was used to compare QoL between the study samples by performing analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Results: The patient group had a lower QoL, and Conclusion: The findings demonstrated that functional dyspepsia affects both physical and psychological health and decreases QoL.
