Subjective sleep pattern in hospitalized patients.
Article in Sleep science (Sao Paulo, Brazil). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Objective: To evaluate the subjective sleep pattern in hospitalized patients. Methods: This is a cross-sectional design developed with 230 patients in a university hospital in northeastern Brazil from September 2017 to March 2018. We included patients 18 years old or older, hospitalized for a minimum of 48 hours and a maximum of five days, with stable clinical conditions and preserved guidance. For data collection, a structured questionnaire was used and the subjective sleep pattern was assessed using Visual Analog Sleep Scales. Univariate and bivariate statistics were calculated using IBM® SPSS® software, version 23.0. Results: In the hospitalization, the Disorder, Effectiveness, and Supplementation scales reached scores of 208.7 points, 353.8 points, and 62.9 points, respectively. The clinical characteristics that interfered with sleep were the practice of regular physical activity (p = 0.024) and a higher body mass index (p = 0.033). We also observed statistically significant differences between VAS scores and factors influencing sleep. Conclusion: There was a certain level of sleep disturbance during the hospitalization period, and consequently the need for sleep supplementation during the day. We also observed that some factors negatively influenced the quality of hospital sleep.
