Sleep disturbance in patients with cirrhosis and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt.
Trial report in BMC gastroenterology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03685994 (The Incidence of Sleep Disorders After Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
backgroundSleep disturbance (SD) is a common occurrence in individuals with cirrhosis and significantly impacts their quality of life. Datas regarding post transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) SD are scarce. This study aimed to explore the incidence and outcomes of post-TIPS SD.
methodsFrom August 2018 to November 2019, 73 patients who underwent TIPS were prospectively recruited for the study. Sleep quality was evaluated via the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the presence of hepatic encephalopathy was evaluated according to the West Haven criteria before and after the TIPS procedure.
resultsNineteen patients (26%) experienced new-onset SD after TIPS, with a median latency of 67 (40-98) days from the procedure. The median time from TIPS creation to occurrence was 67 (40-98) days. Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) post-TIPS emerged as an independent predictor of SD, with an odds ratio of 3 (95% CI: 1.04-8.78, P = 0.046). Notably, five of the six (83%) patients with SD experienced improvement after being administered eszopiclone. Ten of the thirteen (77%) patients with SD improved spontaneously without treatment. Furthermore, the prevalence of MHE was significantly greater among patients with SD than among those without SD (58% vs. 31%, P = 0.04).
conclusionsSD is prevalent in patients who undergo TIPS. MHE is an independent risk factor for the development of SD post-TIPS. Eszopiclone may be a safe and effective treatment option for patients with SD after TIPS. The study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov under the identifier NCT03685994, with a registration date of September 23, 2018.
