Correlation of objective and subjective sleep parameters with fatigue and depression in kidney transplant recipients.
Article in Zhong nan da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Central South University. Medical sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
objectivesSleep quality in kidney transplant recipients is closely associated with symptoms of fatigue and depression. Although subjective assessment tools like the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and the Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire (RCSQ) are widely used to evaluate sleep quality, there is a lack of studies utilizing polysomnography for objective evaluation. This study aims to investigate the correlation between sleep quality, fatigue, and depression in kidney transplant recipients using both subjective and objective methods, providing scientific evidence for improving their quality of life.
methodsThe cross-sectional study conveniently sampled 50 kidney transplant recipients from a transplant center in a general hospital between August 2018 and March 2020. Subjective and objective sleep parameters were evaluated using the RCQS and polysomnography, respectively. The Fatigue Severity Scale was used to assess fatigue, and the Hamilton Depression Scale was employed to measure depression levels.
resultsA lower proportion of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep was associated with increased fatigue. Additionally, higher wake time percentages and poorer sleep quality were significantly correlated with greater depression severity.
conclusionsThis study underscores the critical importance of effectively managing sleep quality in kidney transplant recipients and addressing their fatigue and depression symptoms. These findings lay a foundation for developing targeted nursing and therapeutic strategies.
