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

STUDY

objectivesAlthough subjective-objective sleep discrepancy has long been observed in patients with insomnia, the profiles of this discrepancy are poorly understood. Further, sleep discrepancy in insomnia with sleep comorbidities remains underexplored. We sought to better characterize sleep discrepancy among patient groups with and without insomnia and comorbid conditions such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

methodsUsing data from the Sleep Heart Health Study, we conducted a secondary analysis describing (1) the profile of self-reported and objective sleep measures in patients with insomnia (IS group; n = 73) and comorbid OSA (IS + OSA group; n = 143), compared with individuals with OSA only (OSA group; n = 296) and normal sleep control patients (NSC group; n = 126); (2) the comparative magnitude of sleep misperception between these 4 groups; and (3) the self-reported quality of life (QOL) in the 4 groups.

resultsSubjective-objective sleep discrepancy existed in all 4 groups, including the NSC group. Controlling for age, sex, mental health conditions, sleep apnea severity, and objectively measured sleep time, the presence of self-reported insomnia had the strongest association with sleep discrepancy. In patients with insomnia, sleep onset latency was overestimated (7.8 ± 36.8 min in the IS group;

conclusionsSelf-reported insomnia is associated with sleep discrepancy and negative QOL. Those with comorbid OSA reported the greatest sleep discrepancy and the lowest QOL. Future research is warranted to further understand individual profiles of misperception and insomnia phenotypes. CITATION: Ma Y, Goldstein MR, Davis RB, Yeh GY.
