Poor sleep quality (PSQ) prevalence in patients with functional dyspepsia (FD): a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Functional dyspepsia (FD), a disease of the gastroduodenal tract, is one of the functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) characterized by postprandial fullness and epigastric pain not attributed to any underlying organic diseases. Sleep quality refers to individuals' satisfaction with their overall sleep, including sleep initiation, maintenance, duration, and feeling refreshed upon waking. Despite frequent associations between sleep disorders and FGID, comprehensive data on poor sleep quality (PSQ) in FD patients is lacking. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the occurrence of PSQ in patients with PSQ. Methods: PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were systematically searched to identify relevant literature. All studies reporting PSQ prevalence in FD patients or sufficient data to calculate it were included. Pooled prevalence was calculated for all studies, and an odds ratio was determined for studies with a healthy control group. Meta-regression and subgroup analyses assessed the moderating effects of different variables. Publication bias was examined using funnel plots and Egger's test p-value. The work has been reported in line with AMSTAR (Assessing the methodological quality of systematic reviews) Guidelines. Results: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that pooled the estimate of prevalence of patients with FD with PSQ. Based on 2138 FD patients, the pooled prevalence of poor sleep quality is 57.2% (95% CI: 37%-75.2%), Conclusion: Poor sleep is highly prevalent among FD patients, who are more susceptible to poor sleep than healthy individuals. The findings of the study should be interpreted with caution owing to the high heterogeneity and the publication bias observed for the pooled prevalence. Future research should standardize diagnostic parameters and investigate other confounding factors like anxiety and depression to achieve more accurate estimates.
