Lemborexant for the Treatment of Insomnia in Patients From China: Four Case Studies.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Lemborexant is a competitive antagonist of dual orexin receptors indicated for the treatment of adult patients with insomnia characterized by difficulties with sleep onset and/or sleep maintenance that occur at least three nights per week for ≥3 months, although there is adequate opportunity for sleep. There has been no published study of its efficacy and safety in treating patients from China with insomnia. In this case report, we present four adult patients from China with insomnia who were successfully treated with add-on lemborexant or switched from benzodiazepines or Z-drugs to lemborexant. None of the four patients experienced any discomforts related to lemborexant use. In conclusion, lemborexant treatment was effective and safe in treating the four patients from China with insomnia in this case report, and more studies are warranted to further assess the efficacy and safety of lemborexant in treating patients from China with insomnia.
