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: This study aimed to assess sleep quality and identify influencing factors among midwives in mainland China, providing a reference for obstetric managers to develop strategies that enhance sleep health among midwives. Methods: The study was conducted from January to December 2023 across 566 hospitals in mainland China. A total of 1,948 midwives participated. A self-designed questionnaire was used to collect socio-demographic information and participants' perceived factors influencing their sleep quality. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and regression analysis was performed to identify the factors influencing sleep quality. Results: The median Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score was 9, with 71.9% ( Conclusion: The overall sleep quality of Chinese midwives is poor, influenced by both work-related and individual factors. Obstetric managers should allocate clinical staff and resources efficiently. This can be achieved by adjusting shift rotations, reducing overtime, and implementing other measures to create an environment that supports better sleep quality among midwives, enhancing their work performance and ensuring maternal and neonatal safety.
