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

Premature mortality and increased physical comorbidity associated with bipolar disorder (BD) may be related to accelerated biological aging. Sleep disturbances and inflammation may be key mechanisms underlying accelerated aging in adults with BD. To our knowledge, these relationships have not been examined rigorously. This cross-sectional study included 50 adults with BD and 73 age- and sex-comparable non-psychiatric comparison (NC) subjects, age 26-65 years. Participants were assessed with wrist-worn actigraphy for total sleep time (TST), percent sleep (PS), and bed/wake times for 7 consecutive nights as well as completing scales for subjective sleep quality. Within-individual variability in sleep measures included intra-individual standard deviation (iSD) and atypicality of one evening's sleep. Blood-based inflammatory biomarkers included interleukin (IL)-6, C-reactive protein (CRP), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α). Linear regression analyses tested relationships of mean and iSD sleep variables with inflammatory marker levels; time-lagged analyses tested the influence of the previous evening's sleep on inflammation. BD participants had worse subjective sleep quality, as well as greater TST iSD and wake time iSD compared to the NC group. In all participants, higher TST iSD and lower mean PS were associated with higher IL-6 levels (p = 0.04, η
