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

backgroundInsomnia is a common sleep disorder with significant negative impacts on emotional states; however, the underlying mechanism of insomnia with comorbid emotional dysregulation remains largely unknown. The salience network (SN) plays an important role in both sleep and emotional regulation. The study aimed to explore the specific alterations in functional connectivity (FC) within the SN in insomnia patients.

methodsA total of 30 eligible patients with insomnia disorder (ID group) and 30 healthy controls (HC group) underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanning and psychometric assessments. Differences in FC within the SN were examined using seed-based region-to-region connectivity analysis.

resultsCompared with healthy controls, patients with insomnia showed increased FC within the SN, mainly between the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and right superior frontal gyrus (SFG), the right SFG and right supramarginal gyrus (SMG), and between the right insular (INS) and left SMG (P<0.05). Additionally, significant correlations were observed between increased FC and the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA) scores (P<0.05, after Bonferroni correction).

conclusionsThese results suggest that increased FC within the SN may be related to poor sleep quality and negative emotions, highlighting the importance of the SN in the pathophysiological mechanisms of insomnia with comorbid emotional dysregulation.
