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

backgroundFatigue, sleep disorders, and daytime sleepiness are interconnected, posing significant risks to occupational health and workplace safety. However, the literature on their relationships remains fragmented, with notable gaps, particularly concerning working populations. This descriptive cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate sleep quality (SQ), daily sleep time in hours (DST), daytime sleepiness, fatigue levels among employees in an automotive workplace, and their interrelationships.

methodsThis study assessed fatigue, DST, SQ, and daytime sleepiness (DTS) among employees aged 21-51 years working under the same conditions. Data were collected using questionnaires and two validated scales: the Check Individual Strength Scale (CIS) for fatigue and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) for excessive daytime sleepiness.

resultsNone of the Check Individual Strength Scale (CIS), or SQ points, mean values or DST hours values significantly differ due to any sociodemographic independent variables. Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) points mean values differ significantly due to BMI values. However, statistically significant relationships were identified among CIS, ESS, SQ points, and DST hours. Additionally, a positive correlation was observed between ESS and CIS scores. These findings suggest reciprocal effects among fatigue, SQ, DST, and daytime sleepiness.

conclusionWhile sleep problems cause fatigue also chronic fatigue syndrome may be the reason of worse SQ. Further research is necessary to emphasize the importance of addressing the interplay between fatigue, excessive daytime sleepiness, SQ, and DST in hours to improve workplace safety and employee well-being.
