Association between sleep disorders during pregnancy and risk of postpartum depression: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Archives of women's mental health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Sleep disorders are common among pregnant females. However, its association with postpartum depression (PPD) is unknown. We aimed to assess if sleep disorders during pregnancy increase the risk of PPD by a systematic review. The databases of PubMed, CENTRAL, ScienceDirect, Embase, and Google Scholar were searched for studies reporting the association between any type of sleep disorder during pregnancy and the risk of PPD. Effect sizes were pooled in a random-effects model. Sixteen studies with data of 12,614 women were included. Meta-analysis indicated that sleep disorders during pregnancy resulted in a statistically significant increased risk of PPD (OR: 2.36 95% CI: 1.72, 2.32). The overall result had high heterogeneity (I
