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

objectiveTo examine whether (1) sleep architecture is associated with BMI groups in the absence of sleep apnea and (2) BMI group modified associations between sleep architecture and markers of glucose metabolism.

methodsThe Baependi Heart Study (BHS) is a family-based observational study of adults that assessed sleep using at-home polysomnography (PSG) and collected anthropometric and fasting blood measures. BMI was classified into: 18.5 to < 25, 25 to < 30, and ≥ 30 kg/m

resultsIndividuals with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m

conclusionsAfter exclusion of participants with moderate-severe sleep apnea, there was no difference in non-REM sleep and only a small difference in REM sleep between BMI groups, suggesting that BMI does not substantially impair sleep unless sleep apnea is present.
