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

An analytical approach combining the statistical distributions of the sleep-wake bouts and the Markov transition matrix is used to explain the under-examined association between the microarchitecture of the sleep-wake cycle and susceptibility to chronic social stress in C57BL/6J mice. We separated the sleep-wake transitions into distinct sleep-wake sequences, NREM↔Wake and NREM→REM→Wake, which are controlled by independent neural circuits. Our findings imply greater pull toward the wake leading to early termination and fragmentation of the sleep bouts in the light in both sleep-wake sequences pre- and post-stress. Moreover, the stability of NREM in the NREM↔Wake transition was lower, and the probability of transitioning to wake was higher in susceptible relative to resilient or stress-naïve mice pre- and post-stress. Our findings help elucidate the mechanistic interplay between sleep and mood by suggesting the potential neural underpinnings of sleep disturbances responsible the aberrant transitions of sleep-wake bouts exhibited by the stress-susceptible phenotype.
