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 case-control study investigated the relationship between sleep duration and quality with the occurrence of breast cancer among women, both pre- and post-menopausal, in the northwest Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) region of Pakistan.

methodThis case-control research was carried in multiple tertiary care facilities. Newly diagnosed primary breast cancer patients were recruited as cases (n = 408), and 5+ years age-matched controls (n = 408) were randomly selected from the general population. Participants completed a Pittsburg sleeping quality index (PSQI) questionnaire that included questions on sleep characteristics. Statistical analysis included independent t-tests to compare mean sleep durations and quality scores between groups, and logistic regression to adjust for potential confounders.

resultsSleep onset latency between cases and controls was not significantly associated with health outcomes, with a

conclusionThis study does not provide evidence to support an association between sleep duration or quality and the risk of breast cancer. However, it reports a significant association, with shorter sleep durations linked to an increased risk particularly in the context of aggressive breast cancer types such as TNBC.
