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

Introduction: COVID 19 pandemic lockdown affects normal daily activities making people vulnerable to sleep disorders, including insomnia and Internet addiction. The present study explores the prevalence of insomnia and Internet addiction amidst the pandemic while staying at home. Methodology: Data have been collected from 585 individuals of both sexes online through social media using a structured questionnaire that consists of insomnia severity and Internet addiction. Chi square and logistic regression analysis were done to associate the insomnia severity with Internet use behavior and addiction. Results: The overall prevalence of insomnia and subthreshold (mild) insomnia are 12.13% and 31.97%, respectively, with females had insomnia more than males. Internet addiction correlates with insomnia as staying online more than initially intended increases insomnia significantly. Conclusion: COVID 19 pandemic lockdown affects sleep health as sleep-related disorders are on the rise, which could correlate to mental health. The study further seeks attention from researchers, health experts, and related stakeholders to develop a more holistic approach to uncover the problems and promote sleeping awareness.
