Prevalence of Sleep Aid Medication Use in Patients Receiving a Hematopoietic Cell Transplant on an Inpatient Unit.
Article in Hematology/oncology and stem cell therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesThere is a lack of research regarding the use of sleep aids after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT). We describe the prevalence of sleep aid administration in the HCT unit and identify associations with patient or clinical characteristics. PATIENTS AND
methodsIn this retrospective analysis of sequential inpatient HCTs from July 1 to December 31, 2016 we describe whether and when patients were prescribed sleep aid medications. Chi-square tests determined significant differences between patient characteristics, sleep aid prescription, and time of prescription.
resultsOf the 225 patients identified, 193 (86%) were prescribed sleep aids. Significantly more women received prescriptions for sleep aids (90.4%) than men (81%; P = .047). One hundred patients (44%) received prescriptions exclusively while in the hospital.
conclusionFindings show a high prevalence of sleep medication use in patients undergoing inpatient HCT, primarily during hospitalization. Future efforts toward standardized recommendations to optimize peri-transplant sleep would help clinicians and patients.
