Association between nighttime-daytime sleep patterns and chronic diseases in Chinese elderly population: a community-based cross-sectional study.

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
backgroundThis study aimed to assess the relationship between specific nighttime-daytime sleep patterns and prevalence of different chronic diseases in an elderly population.
methodsWe conducted a community-based cross-sectional study in 4150 elderly Chinese, with an average age of 74 years. Sleep-related variables (nighttime sleep duration, daytime napping and duration) and chronic disease status, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), dyslipidemia cancer and arthritis were collected for the study. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to analyze the relationship between nighttime-daytime sleep patterns and prevalence of chronic diseases.
resultsOverall prevalence of any of chronic diseases was 83.8%. Nighttime-daytime sleep patterns were defined according to nighttime sleep duration and habitual nappers/non-nappers. Taking the nighttime-daytime sleep pattern "short nighttime sleep with daytime napping" as reference, those with "long nighttime sleep without daytime napping" had higher prevalence of diabetes [OR and 95% CI, 1.35 (1.01-1.80)] and lower prevalence of arthritis [OR and 95% CI, 0.46 (0.33-0.63)]. And those with "long nighttime sleep with daytime napping" had higher prevalence of diabetes [OR and 95% CI, 1.36 (1.05-1.78)] while lower prevalence of cancer [OR and 95% CI, 0.48 (0.26-0.85)] and arthritis [OR and 95% CI, 0.67 (0.51-0.86)]. Further, in habitual nappers, subjects were classified according to duration of nighttime sleep and daytime naps. Compared to "short nighttime sleep with long daytime napping", individuals with "long nighttime sleep with short daytime napping" had significantly positive association with diabetes prevalence [OR and 95% CI, 1.73 (1.15-2.68)] while border-significantly and significantly negative association with cancer [OR and 95% CI, 0.49 (0.23-1.07)] and arthritis [OR and 95% CI, 0.64 (0.44-0.94)], respectively.
conclusionsElderly individuals with chronic diseases had different nighttime-daytime sleep patterns, and understanding these relationships may help to guide the management of chronic diseases.
