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
backgroundFibromyalgia is a chronic pain syndrome associated with impaired psychosocial functioning, reduced quality of life, and substantial socioeconomic burden. Although nutritional approaches to fibromyalgia management are increasingly investigated, the relationships between dietary patterns, socioeconomic determinants, and quality of life remain unclear. This study aimed to assess associations between fibromyalgia severity, psychosocial functioning, dietary patterns (DPs), socioeconomic factors, and self-rated quality of life among Polish women with fibromyalgia.
methodsA cross-sectional online survey was conducted between March and April 2026 among members of nationwide Polish Facebook support groups for individuals with fibromyalgia. The final analysis included 201 women who self-reported a physician diagnosis of fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia severity was assessed using the Modified Fibromyalgia Assessment Status (FAS), disease impact using the Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQR), and quality of life using selected WHOQOL-BREF domains. Dietary patterns were identified using principal component analysis (PCA) based on the frequency of consumption of 33 food groups from the KomPAN questionnaire. Hierarchical linear regression models were applied to identify predictors of self-rated quality of life.
resultsFour dietary patterns were identified: traditional, meat-and-fat, pro-healthy, and dairy-based. Participants reported low overall quality of life and moderate fibromyalgia severity. A better self-rated financial situation was associated with a higher quality of life only in the initial regression model (β = 0.325;
conclusionsThese findings support a comprehensive biopsychosocial model of fibromyalgia care.
