Associations of Everyday Discrimination With Insomnia and Short Sleep Duration Among Older Women.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 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
backgroundDiscrimination may contribute to sleep health disparities among women, yet limited research has investigated the association between discrimination and insomnia with short sleep. METHODS AND
resultsAmong a racially and ethnically diverse sample of women (N=25 920; mean age, 72.2±6.1 years), we investigated the relationship of discrimination with insomnia symptoms and sleep duration. Poisson models with robust variance were fit to examine discrimination with insomnia, sleep duration (short <7 hours or long >9 hours versus recommended 7-9 hours), and insomnia short sleep phenotype adjusted for covariates. Insomnia symptoms, short and long sleep, and high discrimination were reported by 53%, 11%, 15%, and 40% of women, respectively. Women reporting high versus low discrimination were more likely to report insomnia, short sleep, and insomnia short sleep phenotype (insomnia: adjusted prevalence ratio, 1.15 [95% CI, 1.13-1.18]; short sleep: adjusted prevalence ratio, 1.24 [95% CI, 1.16-1.34]; insomnia short sleep phenotype: adjusted prevalence ratio, 1.45 [95% CI, 1.31-1.61]). In exploratory analyses, the association between discrimination and insomnia symptoms was present among Asian and White women, whereas the association between discrimination and sleep duration was among Hispanic (long sleep) and White (short sleep) women. Further, the association between discrimination and insomnia symptoms was more pronounced among those with less than a bachelor's degree, whereas women with a bachelor's degree or higher were less vulnerable to the association between discrimination and long sleep.
conclusionsDiscrimination was associated with insomnia and short sleep, a more severe phenotype for adverse cardiovascular health. Discrimination may be a target for reducing sleep problems among older women.
