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
The Barcelona Sleepiness Index (BSI) is an ultra-short instrument with several advantages for assessing excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). The present study was performed to analyze the validity of the French version of the BSI in screening for EDS. We conducted a cross-sectional study on a population of students using an online questionnaire. The French version of the BSI was developed by a rigorous forward-backward translation process. We computed the discrimination properties of the BSI to predict EDS assessed by the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), as well as correlations with other sleep measures. In total, 662 students were enrolled in the study (mean age: 20.9 years, 76.0% women). The BSI score (mean = 1.5 ± 1.0) showed a strong correlation with the ESS score (r = 0.47, p < 10−4) and acceptable discrimination of EDS assessed by ESS score ≥ 11 (AUC = 0.742) with an optimal cutoff point of 2, as in the original study. The BSI score was significantly associated with sleep deprivation and social jetlag. Therefore, the French version of the BSI is a valid ultra-short instrument for EDS screening in individuals. In addition, the BSI score may be associated with both homeostatic and circadian processes. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings in general populations and in patients with sleep disorders.
