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

backgroundSleep is a biological process that is essential for life. Sleep quality refers to an individual's overall satisfaction with their sleep experience, encompassing factors such as ease of falling asleep, ability to stay asleep, total sleep duration, and the sense of refreshment upon waking

objectiveThis study aims to assess the quality of sleep and to find out its influencing factors among undergraduate medical students.

methodsAn observational survey was carried out at C.U. Shah Medical College, Surendranagar, India between 1

resultsThe study showed that about 34% of study participants had poor quality of sleep. A statistically significant association was found between quality of sleep and sociodemographic variables like phase of studying for Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) (p=0.004) and Body Mass Index (p=0.04). There was a strong statistical association found between perceived stress during the last month and quality of sleep (p<0.000).

conclusionsSleep quality was poor in 34.0% of study participants. BMI, phase of studying MBBS, and perceived stress during the last month were major determinants affecting the quality of sleep among medical students. Undergraduate students should adopt stress management techniques and maintain a healthy BMI to improve sleep quality during their MBBS studies.
