The Role of Sleep Disturbance, Depression and Anxiety in Frail Patients with AF-Gender Differences.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The aim of the study was to assess the link between anxiety and depression and frailty syndrome (FS) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) with regard to gender differences. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study was conducted on 158 patients with AF (mean age 70.4 ± 7.6). The study used the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS-M), the Athens insomnia scale (AIS) and the Edmonton frailty scale to assess and compare anxiety, depression, and sleep disturbance between frail and non-frail patients with AF.
resultsFS was diagnosed in 53.2% of patients. A comparative analysis showed a statistically significantly higher severity level of anxiety (12.0 ± 2.6 vs. 8.4 ± 2.5,
conclusionsPatients with AF and FS show deeper anxiety, depression and sleep disturbances. Gender does not influence the risk of frailty in AF patients. Frailty in patients with AF is associated with a higher risk of depression, sleep disturbances and anxiety.
