1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivesThis study evaluated the prevalence and correlates of insomnia in male veterans with military sexual trauma (MST) who currently receive care within a VA medical center.

methodsWe evaluated cross-sectional data from a VA medical center (n = 138) using the following instruments: Insomnia Severity Index, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist, Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology-Self Report, Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test for Consumption, and a nightmare question for insomnia, posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, and drinking, respectively. Bivariate and multivariable analyses assessed the relationship between Insomnia Severity Index and other clinical variables.

resultsAbout 31.9% screened positive for MST. When compared to those without MST (MST-), those with MST (MST+) had a higher prevalence of insomnia (95.5% vs 81.9%) and higher Insomnia Severity Index (20 ± 5.1 vs 16.7 ± 7.2,

conclusionsMost veterans with MST within the Veterans Health Administration had insomnia, which was associated with their underlying psychiatric comorbidity.
