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 main objective of this work is to describe the impact of lockdown on daily life, sleep and the mental health of Moroccan diabetics patients. The secondary objective is to study the factors affecting compliance with lockdown and deterioration of sleep in diabetic patients while lockdown. It´s a cross-sectional study including diabetic patients followed up at the Endocrinology department of Casablanca. Patients answered a questionnaire about Socio-demographic characteristics, Sleep-related characteristics and predominant activities during the lockdown. The psychological impact was assessed by the score of Anxiety and Depression Assessment Scale (HDAS). Statistical analysis was carried out using SPSS 20 software. Bedtime was shifted by 53 minutes during the lockdown. Waking time was also 1 hour 18 minutes later, while sleep duration increased from 8 hours 20 minutes before lockdown to 8 hours 30 minutes during it (p=0.24) with a deterioration in sleep quality reported by 53 patients. Sleep deterioration was not correlated with anxiety or duration of screen exposure, but was more related to age between 50 and 65 years old. HAD score showed anxiety in 29 patients which were correlated to the female gender. The study included 100 patients with an average age of 48 years. 38 patients had a professional activity before lockdown, 5 of them kept working face-to-face, 3 teleworked and 30 were unemployed. Only 59 % of them respected lockdown. This respect was correlated with female gender, educational level and the number of members under the same roof when it is more than 6. Deterioration in sleep, a change in bedtime and waking time and an increase in anxiety was observed in diabetic patients during the lockdown. Therefore, the psychiatric care system needs to adapt to provide psychological support not only to infected persons but also to other vulnerable communities including diabetic patients.
