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

objectiveTo examine associations between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and age-specific insufficient sleep duration (ISD) in American youth.

methodsData from the 2016-2017 National Survey of Children's Health, a sample of 46,209 youth ages 6 to 17 were analyzed. The main outcome was sleep duration that did not meet the recent recommendations of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. Nine types of ACEs, as well as a cumulative count of ACEs, were examined as independent variables in unadjusted and adjusted logistic regression models.

resultsApproximately half of U.S. children and adolescents (ages 6-17) experienced at least one ACE and a third did not get sufficient sleep. Among those exposed to any ACE, 40.3% had ISD. Seven of the 9 ACEs examined were significantly associated with a 20% to 60% increase in odds of not getting sufficient sleep (adjusted ORs between 1.2 and 1.6). Children exposed to 2 or more ACEs were nearly twice as likely as those exposed to no ACE to have ISD (adjusted OR = 1.7, 95% CI: 1.5-1.9). Moreover, each individual ACE, except parental death was significantly associated with more than 1 hour less sleep than recommended.

conclusionsThis study reports the association of specific and cumulative ACEs with ISD in a nationally representative sample of American youth. The study findings underscore the importance of screening for both ACEs and insufficient sleep during primary care encounters and addressing potential sleep problems in those exposed to ACEs.
