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
purposeSecond-hand smoke is recognized as a major indoor pollutant. Evidences indicated that Second-hand smoke exposure can influence on not only physical health, but also mental well-being. As the correlation of secondhand smoke exposure with sleep quality and quality of life has not yet been clarified sufficiently, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between Second-hand smoke exposure, with sleep quality and quality of life after adjusting for active smoking and other relevant confounders.
methodsThe participants of this study were 1790 staff in Tehran University of Medical Sciences with different jobs employed in various academic departments (clinical, research, services, educational and technical ones). They participated voluntarily in this research project and completed the informed consent form between 2018 and 2019. A translated questionnaire of Global Adult Tobacco Survey was used to gather information about smoke exposure. When to evaluate the quality of life, the WHOQOL-BREF tool was applied. All statistical analyses were executed using STATA V14 software.
resultsHigh rate of smoking and also exposure to second-hand smoke significantly increased sleep disorder and reduced the quality of life. In other words, smokers or those who are exposed to second-hand smoke suffer from sleep disturbances and had a poorer physical, psychological, and environmental quality of life. Additionally, the results of multivariate regression analysis demonstrated that the secondhand-smoke group had 1.38 times higher rate of sleep disorder in comparison with non-smokers, that was statistically significant. The women had 2.68 times higher odds of having sleep disorder compared to men. (95 % CI: 2.20 to 3.27). On the other hand, mean score of psychological domain of quality of life in secondhand-smoke group was lower with the size of difference as 0.66 than that in non-smokers, and the difference was statistically significant (p = 0.001).
conclusionsBoth active smoking and exposure to second hand smoke have a negative impact on sleep quality and quality of life.
