Quality of sleep and associated factors among medical interns in public universities in North Ethiopia.
Article in Frontiers in psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Objective: To assess the quality of sleep and associated factors among medical interns at public universities in North Ethiopia. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study among 259 medical interns using a structured, interviewer-administered questionnaire. We employed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) to determine the quality of sleep. Results: Of the subjects, 72.6% were screened as having poor sleep quality. Anxiety [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 4.5, 95% CI: 1.93, 11.50; p < 0.001], poor sleep hygiene (AOR = 4.5, 95% CI: 1.4, 11.65; p < 0.001), current alcohol use (AOR = 3.85, 95% CI: 2.16, 6.89; p < 0.001), and current tobacco use (AOR = 2.4, 95% CI: 2.3, 25; p = 0.001) were significantly associated with poor quality of sleep. Conclusion: Poor quality of sleep is prevalent among medical interns. Addressing anxiety, and alcohol and tobacco use and enhancing the practice of sleep hygiene among medical interns requires significant attention.
