The Impact of Chronic Fatigue on Psychopathology in Outpatient Physiotherapy Patients.
Article in Musculoskeletal care, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionChronic fatigue is a debilitating condition marked by physical and mental exhaustion, frequently co-occurring with psychiatric disorders such as depression and anxiety.
methodsIn a cross-sectional study, 172 consecutive patients from a busy physiotherapy clinic were assessed using the Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS) for physical and mental fatigue and the SCL-90 for various psychological symptoms, with correlation analyses exploring relationships between fatigue severity, psychological distress and demographic factors.
resultsMost participants reported clinically significant fatigue, with 90.69% experiencing physical fatigue and 76.77% experiencing mental fatigue. Paranoid ideation (61.05%) and obsessive-compulsiveness (59.88%) were common. Strong correlations were found between overall fatigue and psychological distress (r = 0.675, p < 0.001), especially between mental fatigue and depression (r = 0.699, p < 0.001).
conclusionOverall, the findings underscore the need for integrated multidisciplinary interventions to address both chronic fatigue and its related psychiatric symptoms.
