Sleep Moderating the Relationship Between Pain and Health Care Use in Youth With Sickle Cell Disease.
Article in The Clinical journal of pain, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesThe purpose of the current study was to investigate the influence of sleep on the relationship between pain and health care use (HCU) in youth with sickle cell disease (SCD). It was hypothesized that poor sleep would be related to higher HCU and would strengthen the relationship between high pain frequency and more HCU among youth with SCD. MATERIALS AND
methodsNinety-six youth with SCD (aged 8 to 17 y) and their guardians were recruited from 3 regional pediatric SCD clinics. Guardians reported on the youth's pain frequency and HCU using the Structured Pain Interview for parents, and youth wore a sleep actigraph for up to 2 weeks to assess sleep duration and sleep efficiency. A series of regression models were calculated with the following outcomes: emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and health care provider contacts.
resultsInconsistent with hypotheses, poor sleep was not directly related to HCU. Also, higher sleep duration appeared to strengthen the relationship between high pain frequency and more emergency department visits.
conclusionsFindings suggest that good sleep may serve as a protective factor for better matching pain to HCU. Results should be interpreted in the context of study limitations. Research is needed to investigate possible mechanisms linking sleep duration to HCU in response to pain and to ascertain if sleep patterns influence the relationship between pain and other functional outcomes in youth with SCD. Clinically, these findings support the need to acknowledge and address the role that sleep plays in responding to SCD pain in pediatric populations.
