Sleep duration is associated with metabolic syndrome in adolescents and children: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Journal of clinical sleep medicine : JCSM : official publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
STUDY
objectivesStudies on the associations between sleep duration and metabolic syndrome in adolescents and children have reported mixed results. To shed more light on this issue, we conducted this meta-analysis by synthesizing the results of previous studies.
methodsStudies were retrieved from PubMed, Ovid, Cochrane, and Embase from inception to October 2021. Fixed-effects models and random-effects models were used to analyze the effects of sleep time on metabolic syndrome in adolescents.
resultsData from 7 studies, including 13,305 adolescents and children, were meta-analyzed. Compared with the control group, short sleep durations were not associated with a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome in adolescents and children using a random-effects model (odds ratio = 0.92, 95% confidence interval = 0.48-1.37,
conclusionsLong sleep duration, instead of short sleep duration, was significantly associated with a lower prevalence of metabolic syndrome among adolescents and children.
