Disturbed sleep after lung transplantation is associated with worse patient-reported outcomes and chronic lung allograft dysfunction.
Article in JHLT open, 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
Background: Many lung transplant recipients fail to derive the expected improvements in health-related quality of life (HRQL) and survival. Sleep may represent an important, albeit rarely examined, factor associated with lung transplant outcomes. Methods: Within a larger cohort study, 141 lung transplant recipients completed the Medical Outcomes Study Sleep Problems Index (SPI) Revised scale along with a broader survey of patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures and frailty assessment. From the SPI, we also derived an insomnia-specific subscale. Potential perioperative risk factors for disturbed sleep were derived from medical records. We investigated associations between perioperative predictors on SPI and insomnia and associations between SPI and insomnia on PROs and frailty by linear regressions, adjusting for age, sex, and lung function. We evaluated the associations between SPI and insomnia on time to chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) and death using Cox models, adjusting for age, sex, and transplant indication. Results: Post-transplant hospital length of stay >30 days was associated with worse sleep by SPI and insomnia (SPI: Conclusions: Poor sleep after lung transplant appears associated with PROs, frailty, CLAD, and death. Clarifying the nature of this association may have important screening implications.
