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

This paper is a review of my life as a sleep researcher and clinician. I chanced into sleep by being at the right place at the right time. Over the last 45 years, I became an expert on sleep and circadian rhythms in aging, in Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease and in cancer. We were one of the first to show how common sleep apnea and periodic limb movements in sleep are in the elderly. We "moved" into the nursing home and showed how disrupted sleep is in these patients. We used light therapy to improve sleep in the nursing home. We studied the effect of CPAP on sleep and cognition in both Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. And we were some of the first to study sleep and circadian rhythms in women with breast cancer, starting the evaluations before they started their chemotherapy. These studies were both observational and treatment studies. I am very proud of the work we did. For me, everything revolves around sleep. And that is the beginning of my story.
