Reliability and validity of the Turkish version of general sleep disturbance scale (GSDS-T) in stroke.
Article in Acta neurologica Belgica, 2023. 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
backgroundStroke is a life-threatening condition with many complications. Sleep disturbances is one of them. Sleep disturbances effect quality of life, recovery and rehabilitation process. It is crucial to reveal sleep disturbances objectively in stroke patients. The aim of the study is to determine reliability and validity of the Turkish version of General Sleep Disturbance Scale (GSDS-T) in stroke patients.
methodsAfter translation and culture validation of the scale was done, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Turkish version of the GSDS was applied at admission and at 24 h to the 58 patients with stroke.
resultsCronbach alpha coefficient of total score was found as 0.850 and test re-test reliability-related Cronbach alpha coefficient was 0.785.
conclusionGSDS-T is a reliable and valid tool to assess sleep disturbance in stroke patients.
