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
Context: Sparse published data are available from India regarding sleep disorders in elderly, sleep quality, and daytime sleepiness. Aims: To study sleep disturbances in the elderly (>60 years) subjects. Settings and Design: Hospital-based cross-sectional study. Methods and Material: All the subjects underwent a thorough clinical evaluation which included detailed history and a thorough physical examination. The daytime sleepiness was assessed using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). The sleep quality (SQ) was evaluated with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Statistical Analysis Used: Association between categorical variables was studied by Chi-square (χ Results: During the period November 2019 to July 2020, 122 elderly subjects were studied; women ( Conclusions: Our observations suggest that a high proportion of elderly subjects who did not complain of sleep-related symptoms were found to have poor sleep quality. Therefore, incorporating SQ assessment as a part of routine geriatric assessment screening would be beneficial in early detection of this condition.
