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/
backgroundThis study investigated fatigue and excessive daytime sleepiness to determine which was more closely related to depression in the general population. PATIENTS/
methodsParticipants were investigated across 15 South Korean districts. Excessive daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and depression were evaluated using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), respectively. Depression was defined as PHQ-9 ≥ 10. The authors classified the combination of excessive daytime sleepiness and fatigue as excessive daytime sleepiness with fatigue (E
resultsAmong 2,493 participants (1,257 women), mean age was 47.9 ± 0.3 years. The prevalence of depression, fatigue, and excessive daytime sleepiness was 8.4% (n = 210), 30.8% (n = 767), and 15.3% (n = 382), respectively. The frequency of the four categories with depression (vs. controls) was as follows.: E
conclusionAlthough fatigue and excessive daytime sleepiness were associated with depression regardless of the presence of each other, we could not clarify which was more closely related to depression.
