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

The increasing interruptions of nocturnal sleep with aging must be distinguished from actual sleep disorders. Morbidity and medication have an impact on sleep. The relationship between sleep and morbidity is mutual. Disturbed sleep modifies many clinical symptoms and diseases affect sleep and the ability to sleep. Geriatric syndromes such as falls, depression and dementia are modified by sleep disorders. Geriatric syndromes can be favorably influenced by the treatment of sleep disorders. Adequate diagnostics are important prerequisites. Coincidences of different sleep disorders are frequent. The medical history of patients and a sleep diary form the basis of the diagnostics. Sleep medicine provides further technical examination procedures. Older people should be examined in a sleep laboratory if the results have consequences that are accepted by the patient. This should be clarified in advance.
