An exploratory study of sleep habits in school-aged survivors of retinoblastoma.
Article in Sleep medicine, 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
OBJECTIVE/
backgroundRetinoblastoma is an ocular cancer diagnosed in early childhood. Previous research has indicated the impact of cancer treatment on sleep, but little is known about how sleep is impacted among survivors of retinoblastoma. The current study aimed to describe sleep habits of school-age survivors of retinoblastoma, to examine associations between sleep and quality of life, and to examine concordance between parent and child reports of sleep habits. PATIENTS/
methodsSixty-nine survivors of retinoblastoma (Mage = 10.89, SD = 1.07, 50.7% female; 56.5% unilateral disease) and their caregivers participated, providing information on both self- and parent-reported sleep habits, quality of life, and demographic data.
resultsGreater sleep concerns than national norms were reported by parents (bedtime resistance (t(58) = 2.69, p = .009), greater sleep onset delay (t(66) = 2.46, p = .017), shorter sleep duration (t(57) = 2.12, p = .038), increased daytime sleepiness (t(53) = 6.45, p= <.001)) and children (sleep location (t(61) = 2.39, p = .02), restless legs syndrome (t(62) = -2.21, p = .03), parasomnias (t(64) = 19.19, p=<.001)) . Both children and parents of children who received enucleation endorsed greater sleep concerns across several domains (e.g., electronic use before bed, sleep-disordered breathing). Child- and parent-reported sleep concerns were generally associated with decreased quality of life. Finally, child- and parent-report of sleep habits appeared generally consistent.
conclusionsSurvivors of retinoblastoma experience sleep difficulties. As such, assessment and targeted intervention is important to mitigate any effects on quality of life. Future research should examine sleep habits of survivors of retinoblastoma across cultures and developmental periods.
