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: Poor sleep quality among nurses negatively impacts job performance, patient care, and mental well-being, leading to compromised cognitive ability, decision-making, and increased errors, which ultimately jeopardize patient care and safety. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of poor sleep quality and its associated factors among nurses at a tertiary care hospital in Mogadishu, Somalia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among nurses working at a tertiary care hospital between May and August 2024. Data were collected using a standardized questionnaire, which included socio-demographic information, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21), and the Oslo Social Support Scale (OSSS-3). Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify risk factors for poor sleep quality. A p-value of 0.05 was considered the threshold for statistical significance. Results: A total of 280 nurses participated in the study, with 45.7% (95% CI: 39.8-51.7) reporting poor sleep quality. The odds of reporting poor sleep quality were higher among female nurses (AOR = 2.68; 95% CI: 1.35-5.32), those working night shifts (AOR = 4.76; 95% CI: 2.06-11.02), those with poor social support (AOR = 2.82; 95% CI: 1.09-7.27), and those experiencing depression (AOR = 5.35; 95% CI: 2.22-12.88), anxiety (AOR = 5.58; 95% CI: 2.61-11.92), and stress (AOR = 3.92; 95% CI: 1.11-13.90). Conclusion: This study revealed a significantly high prevalence of poor sleep quality among nurses. These findings underscore the importance of addressing sleep quality as a key component of nursing well-being. It is recommended that nursing managers assess both the mental and physical health of their staff, implement targeted interventions such as stress management and counseling, and develop workplace strategies to improve sleep, including flexible scheduling and education on sleep hygiene.
