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

objectiveSleep hygiene education is widely used as a coping strategy for sleep disorders and is known to be an effective, and side-effect-free approach. To improve sleep quality by reducing the symptoms and fatigue level experienced by patients with OSAS with sleep hygiene education.

methodThe study was a single-center, randomized controlled research. A structured training program was applied face-to-face to the intervention group. Received inpatient treatment for atrial fibrillation in the Cardiology Service of a Training and Research Hospital between June 2023 and December 2023.

resultsNo significant difference was found between the MOS Sleep Scale scores of the control group and the intervention group at 1 month in terms of sleep disturbance, sleep adequacy, shortness of breath, sleepiness, snoring, and sleep duration subscales. Fatigue, concentration, motivation, and physical activity scores of the intervention group patients were lower at the end of the 1st month.

conclusionSleep hygiene education has a positive effect on sleep duration in patients with Atrial Fibrillation, however it is ineffective in ensuring high quality sleep.
