The effectiveness of different exercise modalities on sleep quality: A protocol for systematic review and network meta-analysis.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundRecently, the effect of exercise on sleep quality has been paid increasing attention by researchers. A number of systematic reviews and direct meta-analyses have explored the effectiveness of exercise on sleep quality. However, which type of exercise is optimal for sleep quality is still not clear. Therefore, this study aims to adopt network meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of different exercise modalities on sleep quality and find the most effective one for improving sleep quality.
methodsThe databases searched included PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, CENTRAL, PsycINFO, and SPORTDiscus. Studies published in English and from the dates of database inception to October 8, 2019, were included. Besides, we also checked the reference lists of systematic reviews published in recent years. Two independent researchers screened all studies, included the studies that met eligible criteria and will then extract data. The risk of bias will be assessed by the 2 researchers according to the modified Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. During these processes, any disagreement will be discussed to reach a consensus. STATA 14.0 software will be used for direct meta-analysis and network meta-analysis.
resultsHigh-quality synthesis of current evidences will be provided from Pittsburgh sleep quality index. And the effectiveness of different exercise modalities for sleep quality will also be shown.
conclusionThis study will provide the evidence of the most effective exercise for better sleep quality. REGISTRATION: This study was registered with the International Platform of Registered Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (registration number: INPLASY202050096).
