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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesPoor sleep quality, depression, and anxiety are associated with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and greater risk for developing cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease. The COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted sleep habits and psychological well-being in many individuals, yet their relationship to SCD in this context remains understudied. We examined sociodemographic characteristics, depression, anxiety, and sleep changes during the pandemic (i.e., increased problems/poorer quality) and SCD in older individuals living in the US.

methodsIn total, 288 older adults (M

resultsSelf-reported pandemic-related impairments in sleep were associated with greater SCD (β = 0.16,

conclusionsDepression, anxiety, and poorer sleep quality during the COVID-19 pandemic were associated with greater SCD concerns. Greater depression and anxiety were also associated with the reported sleep problems/worsened sleep quality. Prevention and management of anxiety and depressive symptoms may help maintain sleep quality and reduce risk of cognitive decline.
