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

Introduction: Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition causing widespread pain in the muscles and bones, frequently occurring alongside fatigue, sleep problems, cognitive difficulties, and mood disorders. Objective: This study investigates the effectiveness of a nurse-led teaching program on sleep disturbances and pain experiences among patients with fibromyalgia. Methods: A quasi-experimental with pretest and posttest measures was implemented in this study. Sixty patients with fibromyalgia were included in the sample, divided equally into a study group and a control group (30 patients each). The study took place at the rheumatology outpatient clinic of Mansoura University Hospital, Egypt from June 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024. The program consisted of 24 consecutive sessions, each lasting ∼20-30 min for 12 weeks. Researchers used three tools to collect data; Demographics Form, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Results: The two groups exhibited no statistically significant differences. across all demographic characteristics ( Conclusion: A nurse-led teaching program can be a valuable nonpharmacological intervention for managing sleep disturbances and pain in patients with fibromyalgia, highlighting the crucial role of nurses in empowering patients with self-management strategies.
