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

Objectives: Sleep deprivation (SD) has detrimental effects on cognition. Emotional processing, a critical component of social cognition, is also affected by SD. However, current research on how SD affects emotion recognition and the specific emotion recognition that declines with SD is inconsistent. The present study meta-analyzed results of studies examining emotion category recognition changes in SD compared with controls. Methods: PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, PsychINFO, MEDLINE, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases were searched. Studies on the impact of acute SD or insomnia on emotional recognition and participants aged 18 years or older were included in this review. The JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist and GRADE approach were used to assess the quality of the studies and evidence. Results: Twelve studies with 414 SD and 399 control participants were included in this meta-analysis. The SD group performed poorer on facial sadness (MD = -4.35; 95% CI, -7.99 to -0.71) and happiness (MD = -1.75; 95% CI, -3.25 to -0.26) recognition than the control group (normal sleep condition). The reaction time of the SD group was significantly longer than that of the control group for all emotional categories. The intensity rating of facial emotions showed no difference between the two groups. Conclusions: Sleep deprivation slows individuals' reactions in facial emotion recognition tasks and weakens their ability to recognize sadness and happiness. Future studies should identify the effects of SD, SD duration, and recovery time on different types of emotion recognition.
