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

Glutamate is the most excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and it is involved in the initiation and maintaining of waking and rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep. Homer proteins act in the trafficking and/or clustering of metabotropic glutamate receptors, and polymorphisms in the HOMER1 gene have been associated with phenotypes related to glutamate signaling dysregulation. In this study, we report the association of a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the HOMER1 gene (rs3822568) with specific aspects of sleep in a sample of the Brazilian population. To accomplish this, 1,042 individuals were subjected to a full-night polysomnography, and a subset of 983 subjects had rs3822568 genotyping data available. When compared with the A allele carriers, GG genotyped individuals showed higher sleep latency, lower sleep efficiency, reduced number of arousals per hour, lower apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and lower theta spectral power. In summary, the present findings suggest that the rs3822568 polymorphism in the HOMER1 gene is associated with sleep EEG profiles and might have an impact on sleep quality and sleep structure, with potential to explain inter-individual variation in sleep homeostasis.
