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

STUDY

objectivesTo characterize public practices and perspectives on the use of consumer sleep technology (CST) and evaluate perspectives on using CST as a screening tool for obstructive sleep apnea.

methodsWe designed a survey instrument incorporating content from validated instruments (STOP-Bang and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale) and hypothesis-generated questions. Survey development involved multidisciplinary collaboration among 3 board-certified sleep medicine experts, researchers, and consumers. The survey was disseminated across a national sample of adults living in the United States via an online platform.

resultsAmong 897 respondents, the mean (standard deviation) age was 47.5 (16.9) years; 73.1% were female, 81.8% were White, and 505 respondents (56.3%) reported having tracked sleep using CST. Factors associated with decreased odds of CST use included household income < $30,000 (odds ratio [OR] 0.47, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.28-0.79;

conclusionsAttitudes toward and use of CST differed based on demographic and socioeconomic factors. Further study is needed to understand and address barriers to CST adoption and to characterize implications for equitable access to care for sleep disorders.
