Effects of Gestational Sleep Patterns and Their Changes on Maternal Glycemia and Offspring Physical Growth in Early Life.
Article in Nutrients, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled it.
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
Maternal sleep patterns during pregnancy are drawing increased attention to examine its role in the regulation of maternal glycemia and physical growth of offspring within 24 months. Among 3329 eligible mother−child pairs included in the Shanghai Maternal−Child Pairs Cohort, sleep patterns of pregnant women were assessed by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and objective measurement in early and late pregnancy. Offspring physical growth within 24 months was primarily indicated by the body mass index Z-score (BAZ), catch-up growth, and overweight/obesity. In total, 3329 and 382 pregnant women were included with subjectively assessed and objectively measured sleep pattern, respectively. The increased risk of GDM was associated with maternal night-time sleep duration ≥8.5 h in early pregnancy, or sleep quality change from poor to good during pregnancy (OR = 1.48; 95% CI, 1.06 to 2.07). In the GDM group, the effect of sleep duration in early pregnancy on overweight/obesity in offspring within 24 months showed a U-shaped curve, with a 1.73-fold and 1.43-fold increased risk of overweight/obesity of offspring in pregnant women with <7.5 or ≥8.5 h of sleep duration, respectively. A good gestational sleep pattern was required to reduce the risk of GDM and offspring overweight/obesity within 24 months.
