Analysing the role of sleep quality, functional limitation and depressive symptoms in determining life satisfaction among the older Population in India: a moderated mediation approach.

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
backgroundLife satisfaction (LS), a useful construct in the study of psycho-social well-being, is an important indicator of healthy aging. With a view to investigate whether the improved longevity in India is accompanied by commensurate levels of well-being and contentment among the older adults , this study aimed to examine (1) the association between LS and sleep quality among older Indian adults aged 60 years and above (2) the mediating role of depression that accounts for the association and (3) the moderating role of functional limitation in this mediation.
methodsCross-sectional data from the Longitudinal Ageing Study in India (LASI), Wave-1 (2017-18) was used. Pearson's correlation coefficients were calculated to investigate the pair-wise relationship between sleep quality, depressive symptoms, functional limitation, and LS. Structural Equation Model was employed to analyse the moderated-mediated association between sleep quality and the level of LS.
resultsSleep quality had a direct effect (β=-0.12) as well as an indirect effect (β=-0.024) via depressive symptoms on LS, accounting for 83.6 and 16.4 per cent of the total effects, respectively. Also, the interaction term between poor seep quality and functional limitation was positive (β = 0.03, p < 0.001) in determining depressive symptoms, suggesting that higher level of functional limitation aggravated the indirect effect of poor sleep quality on LS.
conclusionThe findings of the study suggested that ensuring both the physical as well as the mental well-being of the population during the life course may confer in later life the desired level of life satisfaction.
