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

backgroundSleep has a significant impact on the incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), but there is no comprehensive research on this topic.

aimsAssess the association between sleep factors and the risk of cardiovascular diseases in terms of comprehensive sleep behavior.

methodsThis study included 8,075 subjects from NHANES 2017-2020, excluding those with missing sleep/CVD data. Poor sleep factors: abnormal sleep duration (<7h or>8h), trouble sleeping, snoring, snort or stop breathing, sleepy during day. Each factor was scored (0-12 total), classifying sleep patterns as healthy (0-4), intermediate (5-8) or poor (9-12). Multivariable logistic regression analyzed the association between unhealthy sleep and CVD. Weighted data were used for restricted cubic spline (RCS) plots to assess the nonlinear relationship between sleep durations, bedtime, rising time and CVD.

resultsAdjusted models showed significant associations between poor sleep and heart failure, myocardial infarction, stroke and hypertension (p < 0.05). Daytime sleepiness also increased stroke and hypertension risks (p < 0.05). RCS plots revealed nonlinear relationships: 7-9 hours sleep/day minimized heart failure, myocardial infarction and hypertension risks; 6-8 hours/day minimized stroke risk. Bedtime showed J-shaped and U-shaped associations with myocardial infarction and hypertension.

conclusionThis nationally representative survey revealed that poor sleep patterns, particularly sleep disorders, daytime sleepiness and reported breathing obstructions were significantly associated with an increased prevalence of cardiovascular diseases. Additionally, there was a nonlinear correlation between sleep duration, bedtime, rising time and the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.
