Correlation between night sweats and season fluctuation in China.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Night sweats are a condition in which an individual sweats excessively during sleep without awareness, and stops when they wake up. Prolonged episodes of night sweats might result in the depletion of trace elements and nutrients, affecting the growth and development of children. Purpose: To investigate the relationship between sweat nights and season. Method: The Internet search index for night sweats in Zhengzhou, China was obtained from the Baidu index during 2011-2022. Meteorological factors, including ambient temperature, humidity, pressure, precipitation and average wind speed in Zhengzhou were obtained from the website https://en.tutiempo.net/climate. A time series decomposition model was used to study the relationship between night sweats and seasonality. Continuous wavelet transform and cross wavelet transform were utilized to explore the relationship between night sweats and meteorological factors. Result: A typical periodic pattern is evident in the seasonal trend. Specifically, following a peak in January each year, there is a rapid decline followed by a secondary peak, after which a trough occurs. The search index of night sweats increased rapidly in the first stage, slowed down in the second stage, and showed negative growth from 2011 to 2014. The correlation coefficients between the search index for night sweats and atmospheric pressure as well as average temperature, are 0.25 and-0.26, respectively. Conclusion: Night sweat was connected with season. Specifically, the number of night sweat search index increased in the cold season and declined in the summer season. Night sweat was negatively connected with temperature but favorably correlated with air pressure.
