Effects of exercise on the sleep microarchitecture in the aging brain: A study on a sedentary sample.
Article in Frontiers in systems neuroscience, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Having a healthy sleep pattern plays a vital role in one's overall health. Sleep in the elderly is characterized by decreased slow-wave sleep and an increase of REM sleep. Furthermore, quantitative electroencephalographic (qEEG) studies have shown an age-related attenuation of total EEG power in sleep. However, exercise has been shown to improve sleep across all age groups. In this study, we used the Sleep Profiler™ EEG Sleep Monitor to observe EEG changes occurring during sleep following an aerobic exercise intervention. This study was done on older adults (
