Dietary Magnesium Intake Is Associated With Self-Reported Short Sleep Duration but Not Self-Reported Sleep Disorder.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundSleep disturbances have become increasingly prevalent in modern society. Research suggests that a deficiency in magnesium (Mg) may contribute to sleep disturbances. This study aims to investigate the association between daily Mg intake and self-reported sleep duration and sleep disorders using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).
methodsThe study dataset includes participants from five cycles (2009-2018) of NHANES. The associations between Mg intake and sleep duration are analyzed using weighted logistic regression.
resultsBaseline characteristics of 21,840 participants were analyzed. Mg intake was independently associated with sleep duration (OR = 1.07, 95% CI (1.01-1.14), p = 0.024). Higher quartiles of Mg intake from food were associated with normal sleep duration. However, Mg intake from food in participants with self-reported sleep disorders did not differ from those without sleep disorders (OR = 0.96, 95% CI (0.90-1.03), p = 0.238). Among 3923 participants with Mg supplementation data, no significant differences were found between the top and bottom 50% Mg supplementary groups regarding sleep duration or disorders.
conclusionsDietary Mg intake is independently associated with self-reported short sleep duration but not with self-reported sleep disorders. Mg supplementation is not associated with either self-reported sleep duration or sleep disorders.
