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

backgroundThis study aimed to elucidate the relationship between physical activity, body weight, liver function, and insomnia in Korean adults, thereby providing a foundation for health promotion strategies.

methodsWe recruited 11,645 adults (8,051 males and 3,594 females). Participants underwent assessments using the Korean version of the Insomnia Severity Index, measures of physical activity (PA), anthropometric data (body weight, height, body mass index [BMI], and waist circumference [WC]), and liver function (alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase [AST], and gamma-glutamyl transferase).

resultsOne-way ANOVA revealed significant differences among male groups in height (p < .001), weight (p = .036), BMI (p = .002), diastolic blood pressure (p = .008), AST (p = .036), recreational PA (p = .026), moderate PA (p < .01), vigorous PA (p < .01), and moderate-to-vigorous PA (p < .001). Similarly, significant differences were found among female groups in height (p < .001), weight (p = .001), BMI (p = .006), WC (p = .013), moderate PA (p < .001), vigorous PA (p < .001), and moderate-to-vigorous PA (p < .001).

conclusionTo prevent insomnia, it is essential to enhance physical activity and manage factors related to body weight and liver function, such as BMI, WC, and AST. Increasing moderate-to-vigorous physical activity is particularly crucial, as it has a substantial positive impact on reducing body weight and improving liver function.
