Association between sleep quality and depression among institutionalized and community older people - Brazilian Western Amazonia.
Article in BMC psychiatry, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundThe transition in the population pyramid is a reality in several locations around the world and projections of an increase in the older population in Brazil demonstrate the relevance of studies on factors that may interfere in the functionality and quality of life in this age group. Thus, the present study aims to assess depression levels and their relationship with sleep quality in institutionalized and community older adults.
methodsThis cross-sectional study included 220 older people of both sexes, divided into two groups, institutionalized older adults, and community older adults. The older adults were monitored by Community Health Agents (CHA), through identification of everyone in their micro area using a method of random name generation, based on geographic location. Due to the small number of institutionalized older adults, all residents in the institutions were recruited, according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were used to assess depression and sleep quality.
resultsAmong the 220 older adults, 175 were community members and 45 were institutionalized. The survey revealed that institutionalized older adults had a higher percentage of severe depression compared to community dwelling older adults (p < 0.039).
conclusionOlder adults in the community present greater symptoms of depression and better sleep than institutionalized older adults. There was a direct association between sleep quality and depression. In our sample, being institutionalized and female positively influenced and feeling alone negatively influenced depressive symptoms.
