Effect of night shift on development of metabolic syndrome among health care workers.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Circadian desynchronization, sleep deprivation, changes in eating habit, and lack of physical activity resulting in an increase in pro-inflammatory markers in night shift health care workers is associated with various risk factors for the development of metabolic syndrome. This study aimed to estimate the pro-inflammatory markers in night shift work and find its relationship with different criteria of metabolic syndrome. Materials and Methods: A total of 303 participants were recruited for the study. Demographic data and parameters pertaining to the development of metabolic syndrome were taken. Highly sensitive C-reactive protein (Hs CRP) as proinflammatory marker was analyzed. Fasting blood sugar (FBS), serum triglyceride (TG), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were estimated. Criteria for metabolic syndrome were taken according to the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP ATP III) guidelines. Results: Night shift workers had higher hs CRP compared to day shift workers. TG and FBS were increased significantly ( Conclusion: Night shift work is associated with an increase in pro-inflammatory markers and the development of risk factors leading to metabolic syndrome. Thus, early screening and management of risk factors among night shift health care workers may improve their health status and prevent the development of MS.
