Association of nocturnal sleep duration and sleep midpoint with osteoporosis risk in rural adults: a large-scale cross-sectional study.
Article in Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundEvidence has suggested the linkage between sleep habits and several metabolic diseases, but the association of sleep factors with bone health remains unclear, especially in regions with low economic levels. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the relationship of nocturnal sleep duration and sleep midpoint with the osteoporosis risk in a rural population.
methodEligible subjects were derived from the Henan Rural Cohort Study. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was applied to collect sleep information including sleep initiating time and wake-up time. The bone mineral density of the calcaneus was measured by the ultrasonic bone density apparatus. Multivariable logistic regression models and restricted cubic splines were utilized to evaluate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI).
resultsFor 8033 participants, 1636 subjects suffered from osteoporosis. Compared with the reference group (7 ~ h group), the ORs and 95% CI of osteoporosis associated with duration of nocturnal sleep were 1.32 (1.10, 1.56), 1.59 (1.25, 2.01), and 1.82 (1.25, 2.65) in the 8 ~ h, 9 ~ h, and ≥ 10 h group, respectively. Additionally, the adjusted ORs and 95% CI were 1.20 (1.01, 1.44) in the early sleep midpoint group and 1.09 (0.92, 1.29) in the intermediate sleep midpoint, compared with the late. Furthermore, there was a joint effect of long duration of nocturnal sleep and the early sleep midpoint on osteoporosis.
conclusionLong duration of nocturnal sleep and early sleep midpoint were independently and jointly associated with higher risk of osteoporosis in rural areas.
