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
purposeThe level of 6-sulfatoxy-melatonin (SaMT), a metabolite of melatonin, in first-void morning urine reflects blood melatonin levels from the previous night. We investigated the association between urine SaMT and sleep quality deterioration in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) treated with intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin induction therapy (iBCG).
methodsWe enrolled 51 patients who received iBCG once weekly for 6 or 8 weeks. Patient-reported outcomes were assessed with questionnaires including the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQC30). Questionnaires were completed before (baseline), during, at completion, and 1 and 3 months after iBCG. Melatonin and SaMT levels at baseline were measured in serum and first-void morning urine samples, respectively.
resultsBased on changes in the QLQC30 insomnia subscale, 28 (55%) patients experienced sleep quality deterioration (deterioration group). Urine SaMT values in the deterioration group were lower than those in the non-deterioration group (P = 0.0015; 7.5 vs 15.4 ng/mg creatinine, respectively). Nocturia scores in the non-deterioration group decreased over time, while those of the deterioration group remained high after completion of iBCG. A binary logistic regression analysis revealed that low urine SaMT levels (≤ 9.6 ng/mg creatinine), high IPSS nocturia scores at baseline, and high IPSS storage subscores at baseline were associated with BCG-induced sleep quality deterioration.
conclusionsThis study confirmed the association among urine SaMT levels, nocturia, and sleep disturbance in patients with NMIBC who receive iBCG. We should be aware of treatment-induced impairments to aid in appropriate decision-making.
