Sleep quality in women with nausea and vomiting of pregnancy: a cross-sectional study.
Article in BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundNausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP) deteriorates many aspects of daily lives of women. However, little is known about associations between NVP and sleep quality.
methodsWomen attending to routine mid-pregnancy visits in maternity health care clinics in Turku city area and surrounding municipalities, Finland, during 2011-2014, were invited to participate. A cohort of 1203 volunteers (mean age 30 years, mean gestational week 16.6, mean BMI 24.4 kg/m
resultsAccording to PUQE, NVP was most frequently moderate (n = 629, 52.3%), followed by mild (n = 361, 30.0%) and severe (n = 77, 6.4%). Only 11.3% had no NVP (n = 136). The most frequent sleep disturbance was night awakenings (69.9%, n = 837), followed by sleepiness during the day (35.7%, n = 427), too early morning awakenings (12.0%, n = 143) and difficulty falling asleep (7.1%, n = 81). In adjusted analysis (age, parity, body mass index, smoking, employment), more severe NVP was associated with night awakenings (AOR 3.9, 95% CI 1.79-8.47, P < 0.0001) and sleepiness during the day (AOR 4.7, 95% CI 2.20-9.94, P < 0.0001). In VAS, women with more severe NVP rated worse general sleep quality and worse physical and mental QoL. However, in multivariable analysis, the association between the severity of NVP and physical and mental QoL was stronger than that of sleep .
conclusionsMore severe NVP is associated with sleep disturbances and in close relation to lower physical and mental QoL. Thus, in comprehensive care of women with NVP, also sleep quality should be evaluated.
