Association between sleep quality and general anesthesia in teenager under elective surgery: a prospective study.
Article in Irish journal of medical science, 2022. 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
objectiveAnesthesia was reported to be associated with lowered postoperative sleep quality in adults, but its effect on teenager was less understood. This study was conducted to explore the association between postoperative sleep quality and general anesthesia in teenagers.
methodsA prospective study was conducted. Teenagers aged from 12 to 16 years who were treated with general anesthesia and under urologic or otolaryngologic surgery were recruited. Healthy teenagers matched by sex and age (± 3 years) with the specific case were recruited as the controls. The Sleep Habits Questionnaire was applied to assess the sleep quality of the teenagers. We applied a logistic regression analysis to evaluate the association between general anesthesia in teenagers under elective surgery and poor sleep quality. Risk ratio (RR) and its corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were computed.
resultsA total of 212 teenagers were included comprising 106 patients with general anesthesia who underwent urologic or otolaryngologic surgery and 106 healthy controls. The male participants were accounting for 47.2% (100/212). Anesthesia duration and surgery duration in the patients were 103.7 ± 14.4 min and 162.1 ± 17.0 min, respectively. Positive associations between general anesthesia and poor sleep quality in the 1st, 3rd, and 7th postoperative days were found, and RRs and their corresponding 95%CIs were 4.87 (1.72-13.79), 3.33 (1.22-9.1), and 3.26 (1.07-9.93), respectively. However, there was a lack of statistical associations before surgery and after 14 postoperative days.
conclusionsTeenagers who were treated with general anesthesia and under urologic or otolaryngologic surgery might have poor sleep quality within 7 postoperative days.
