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

Poor sleep is associated with increased cardiovascular events and mortality. Women are typically more exposed to interpersonal trauma than men and may be vulnerable to sleep disturbances as sequelae of trauma. Yet, the association between poor sleep and cardiovascular biomarkers such as resting blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) in young trauma-exposed women has not been well elucidated. We hypothesized that sleep quality would be associated with resting daytime BP and HR, independently of other factors. We recruited 131 otherwise healthy trauma-exposed premenopausal women and measured resting daytime BP and HR using automated vital signs monitor and peripheral arterial tonometry. Participants wore wrist actigraphy for 7 days to assess objective sleep along with a sleep diary and completed two sleep questionnaires: the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). Our analyses revealed that objective sleep efficiency was negatively correlated with (r = -0.222, p = 0.010) and was a significant predictor of (β = -0.206, p = 0.008) resting supine HR, even after controlling for age, BMI, BP, PCL-5, and medication use for depression, anxiety, and sleep (R
