Variations and Patterns in Sleep: A Feasibility Study of Young Carers in Families with ALS.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionChildren and youth under the age of 19 provide daily care for family members living with illness, including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Caregiving affects school performance, social support, stress, and anxiety. Yet, little is known about potential disruptions in sleep.
methodsA quasi-experimental matched comparison of age- and gender-matched young carers (
resultsYoung carers had shorter sleep duration (
conclusionsThe study results demonstrate feasibility, while providing crucial initial case data on sleep quality in young carers. The findings underscore the need to better document the impact of caregiving on young carer's well-being across several areas, including sleep. This data has implications for larger scale studies examining how sleep disruption impacts well-being more broadly and in providing support and respite interventions for young carers across disorders.
