The impact of race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status on early adolescent sleep disturbances for youth exposed to adverse childhood experiences.

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
backgroundAdverse childhood experiences (ACEs) may increase the risk for adolescent sleep disturbances, though the impact of race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status (SES) remains unclear.
objectiveWe sought to determine the direct and moderating impact of race, ethnicity, family SES, and community SES on sleep disturbances across early adolescence for ACE-exposed youth. PARTICIPANTS AND
settingThis secondary analysis used longitudinal Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study® data (2016-2022) from youth who experienced ≥1 ACE by age 9-10 years.
methodsClinically significant sleep disturbances were identified from the annual parent-reported Sleep Disturbances Scale for Children. Parents reported youths' race, ethnicity, family SES, and community SES at baseline. Multilevel mixed effects logistic regression modeling examined the impact of race, ethnicity, and SES on sleep disturbances over four years among ACE-exposed youth. Adjusted odds ratios with 95 % confidence intervals are presented (adj. OR [95 % CI]).
resultsAmong 6661 youth with ACE exposure, 2402 (36.1 %) had clinically significant sleep disturbances at baseline. Multiracial (versus White) youth were 27 % likelier to have clinically significant sleep disturbances over time (adj. OR 1.27 [95 % CI 1.01, 1.59]). Similar results were found for youth exposed to ≥2 family financial adversities (adj. OR 1.50 [95 % CI 1.19, 1.90]). There were no effects of community SES, nor interaction effects of race, ACEs, or SES on sleep disturbances.
conclusionWhile Multiracial youth may experience additional stressors which affect sleep disturbances, regularly assessing family environments and supporting all families to meet basic needs may positively impact adolescent sleep.
