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: Stroke patients may have symptoms such as sleep disorders, and the incidence of frailty is much higher than that of non-stroke patients. Self-efficacy can reduce the occurrence of frailty and sleep disorders and help to maintain the health of stroke patients. Objective: To investigate the relationship between sleep disorder, self-efficacy and frailty in stroke patients, and to analyse the mediating role of self-efficacy. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study, and 6 "stroke map" sites were selected in Shenyang from June to September 2024. A total of 924 stroke patients were included, and a structural equation model (SEM) was constructed to analyse the mediating effect of self-efficacy on sleep disorders, self-efficacy and frailty in stroke patients. Results: The prevalence of debilitation in stroke patients was 46.2%. Sleep disorders were positively correlated with frailty ( Conclusion: The prevalence of frailty in stroke patients is high. Sleep disorders are highly correlated with frailty, and self-efficacy plays a mediating role between sleep disorders and frailty, which can reduce the impact of sleep disorders on frailty development.
