An association between average daily sleep duration and gallstones in US adults.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. 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
Despite extensive research on the impact of health factors and sleep, the specific association between average daily sleep duration and the prevalence of gallstones in adults has not been thoroughly investigated. This study analyzes data from 7,441 individuals from the NHANES 2017-2020 dataset, using exclusion criteria to refine the participant pool. Employing multivariate logistic regression and subgroup analyses while controlling for potential confounders, we assessed the association between average daily sleep duration and the prevalence of gallstones. Our results revealed a statistically significant inverse association (OR = 0.92; 95% CI: 0.86, 0.99; p = 0.0236). This association was consistent across various demographic and health-related subgroups. Interestingly, the inflection points were observed among middle-aged adults (40-60 years) and individuals with diabetes. These findings could inform public health strategies on sleep management, potentially aiding in the prevention of gallstones within these populations.
