Sleep restriction effects on sleep spindles in adolescents and relation of these effects to subsequent daytime sleepiness and cognition.
Article in Sleep, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
STUDY
objectivesLimiting spindle activity via sleep restriction could explain some of the negative cognitive effects of sleep loss in adolescents. The current study evaluates how sleep restriction affects sleep spindle number, incidence, amplitude, duration, and wave frequency and tests whether sleep restriction effects on spindles change across the years of adolescence. The study determines whether sleep restriction effects on daytime sleepiness, vigilance, and cognition are related to changes in sleep spindles.
methodsIn each year of this 3-year longitudinal study, 77 participants, ranging in age from 10 to 16 years, each completed three different time in bed (TIB) schedules: 7, 8.5, or 10 hours in bed for 4 consecutive nights. A computer algorithm detected and analyzed sleep spindles in night four central and frontal electroencephalogram. Objective and self-reported daytime sleepiness and cognition were evaluated on the day following the 4th night.
resultsFor 7 versus 10 hours TIB average all-night frontal and central spindle counts were reduced by 35% and 32%, respectively. Reducing TIB also significantly decreased spindle incidence in the first 5 hours of non-rapid eye movement sleep, produced small but significant reductions in spindle amplitude, and had little to no effect on spindle duration and spindle wave frequency. Sleep restriction effects did not change with age. The reductions in spindle count and incidence were related to daytime sleepiness on the following day but were not related to working memory.
conclusionsThe sleep loss effects on daytime functioning in adolescents are partially mediated by reduced sleep spindles impacting daytime sleepiness.
