Sleep quality and efficiency in adults with post-acute sequelae of COVID-19.
Article in Sleep advances : a journal of the Sleep Research Society, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Study Objectives: Sleep disruptions are associated with adverse mental and physical health outcomes. Individuals with post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) commonly report worsened sleep. This study examined sleep quality and efficiency and their associations with neuropsychiatric symptoms and fatigue in non-hospitalized individuals with PASC. Methods: Sixty-one participants (73.8 percent female; Results: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scores were not associated with objective sleep efficiency. Nearly 97 percent of PASC participants reported poor sleep quality, 85 percent indicated that sleep difficulties interfered with their daily functioning, and 93.9 percent achieved optimal sleep efficiency. Higher Beck Depression Index scores were linked to worse sleep quality, while Beck Anxiety Index, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder-Checklist Civilian Version, and Fatigue Severity Scale scores were not. However, Beck Anxiety Index and Fatigue Severity Scale scores were related to distinct Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index components. None were associated with sleep efficiency. Conclusion: Individuals with PASC experience significant sleep difficulties impacting daily functioning. Although they showed adequate sleep efficiency, most participants perceived their sleep as inefficient, which correlated with worse depressive symptoms. Therefore, sleep is a modifiable factor that could enhance the quality of life for patients with PASC.
