Sleep disorders in children: classification, evaluation, and management. A review.
Review in European journal of pediatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Sleep is essential for the cognitive, emotional, and physical development of children. Common sleep problems occur in 20-30% of children and are often resolved by improved sleep hygiene. Sleep disorders are more severe conditions, e.g., insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, and circadian rhythm disturbances. If left untreated, these can have significant long-term consequences, including impaired cognitive function, increased risk of psychiatric conditions like anxiety and depression, and higher risk of obesity and cardiovascular diseases. To prevent these complications, timely recognition and management is essential. In this paper, we address the medical perspectives of common sleep disturbances in children, focusing on their diagnosis and treatment. Sleep hygiene education, behavioral interventions, and ambient adaptations are first-line interventions for managing all sleep disturbances in children. In cases where behavioral approaches are insufficient, other (non-)pharmacological options are discussed, with a focus on their efficacy and safety in children. Conclusions: Finally, potential long-term consequences and directions for future research are discussed that may improve sleep-related health and well-being.
