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

introductionPatients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) frequently experience sleep disruption. Prior work shows associations between objective (actigraphic) sleep and cognition in these patients, but whether pain affects associations between measures of sleep fragmentation (eg, sleep efficiency, SE) and cognition is unknown. The present study examined independent and interactive associations between objective SE and pain on cognitive performance in patients with ICDs.

methodsA total of 37 patients with ICDs (M

resultsSE interacted with pain to predict SDMT performance, accounting for 12% unique variance. In patients reporting worse pain, higher SE was associated with better SDMT performance. Similar patterns of association on SDMT were not observed in patients with average or low pain. SE and pain ratings did not independently predict SDMT performance. Performance on other cognitive tasks was not associated with any predictors.

conclusionBetter sleep efficiency may play an important role in improving sustained attention/processing speed in patients with ICDs and perceived severe pain. Future research should examine whether interventions aimed at improving sleep fragmentation provide benefit to lower order cognition, particularly in patients with worse pain.
