The Relationship between Sleep Parameters Measured by Polysomnography and Selected Neurotrophic Factors.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundThe molecular underpinnings of insufficient sleep remain underexplored, with disruptions in the neurotrophic signaling pathway emerging as a potential explanation. Neurotrophins (NTs), including brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT3), neurotrophin 4 (NT4), and glial-cell-line-derived growth factor (GDNF), play crucial roles in nerve cell growth and repair. However, their associations with sleep patterns are poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the chosen neurotrophins and objective sleep parameters.
methodsThe study involved 81 participants subjected to polysomnography (PSG). Blood samples were collected after PSG. The mRNA expression and serum protein concentrations of BDNF, GDNF, NT3, and NT4 were measured using real-time quantitative reverse-transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods, respectively.
resultsBDNF and NT3 proteins were negatively correlated with NREM events, while NT4 protein positively correlated with REM events. Electroencephalography power analysis revealed BDNF protein's negative correlation with delta waves during rapid eye movement and non-rapid eye movement sleep.
conclusionThe study highlights associations between neurotrophins and sleep, emphasizing BDNF's role in regulating NREM and REM sleep. The EEG power analysis implicated BDNF in delta wave modulation, shedding light on potential neurotrophic mechanisms underlying sleep effects on cognitive and mood processes.
