Gender Differences in Perpetuating Factors, Experience and Management of Chronic Insomnia.
Article in Journal of gender studies, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers.
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
The higher prevalence of insomnia in women has been attributed to biological factors, which are less likely than cognitive and behavioral factors to play a role in perpetuating insomnia. Gender differences in perpetuating factors have not been extensively examined. This study compared men's and women's self-reports of factors that perpetuate insomnia; experience of symptoms, perceived severity and impact on daytime functioning; and use of strategies to manage insomnia. Data were collected at baseline, using reliable and valid measures, in a project that evaluated behavioral therapies for insomnia. The sample (N = 739) consisted of women (62.4%) and men (37.6%). Gender differences were found in: 1) perpetuating factors: men took more naps and held more unhelpful beliefs about insomnia, whereas women experienced higher pre-sleep arousal; 2) perception of insomnia severity: higher among women; 3) perceived impact of insomnia: higher fatigue among women; and 4) use of strategies (higher in women) to manage insomnia. Gender differences were of a small size but could be associated with women's stress, expression of somatic symptoms, and interest in maintaining their own health to meet multiple role demands.
