Sleep pattern in relation to recurrent osteoporotic fracture in the elderly.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Previous studies assessed the relationship between individual sleep behavior and fracture risk, rather than taking into account the joint complexity of the sleep behaviors. We aimed to explore the association between sleep pattern and risk of imminent recurrent osteoporotic fracture in older hospitalized patients due to an index osteoporotic fracture, where sleep pattern was evaluated as a combination incorporating five common sleep behaviors (i.e., insomnia, snoring, nocturnal sleep duration, daytime napping, and midnight waking up). Methods: We used data from a prospective cohort study for analyses. Patients who aged not < 55 years and were admitted to the hospital due to an index osteoporotic fracture were recruited. Sleep pattern was grouped as healthy, intermediate, and poor pattern, based on the categorization of overall sleep scores. We used Cox proportional hazard models to explore sleep pattern in relation to imminent recurrent fracture. Results: We included a total of 185 elderly hospitalized patients for analyses with mean (± standard deviation) age = 71.5 ± 10.3 years and 87.0% female. During a mean follow-up of 14.7 months, there were 10 (5.4%) recurrent osteoporotic fractures observed. A significantly higher overall sleep score was found in patients with recurrent fractures when compared with those without fractures (3.20 vs. 2.36, Conclusion: Per-one-increase in the overall sleep score was found to be significantly associated with a 60% higher risk of imminent recurrent osteoporotic fracture in the elderly, and intermediate and poor sleep patterns were non-significantly related to an increased risk of recurrent fracture. More high-quality evidence is required to further evaluate the relationship between the sleep pattern and the risk of recurrent osteoporotic fracture in the elderly.
