Sleep and neurocognitive function in the geriatric population: a cross-sectional comparison between nursing-home and community-dwelling older adults.
Article in Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 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
purposeThis study aimed to evaluate the effects of institutional care on sleep quality, cognitive functions, and quality of life in individuals aged 65 and over living in Türkiye.
methodsThis cross-sectional study included a total of 62 elderly individuals, either residing in a nursing home or living in their own homes. Participants were assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and WHO-5 Well-Being Index. After adjusting for age and education, ANCOVA confirmed that nursing home residents had significantly lower MMSE scores than community-dwelling individuals (F(1,58)=7.98, p=0.006, partial η²=0.121).
resultsThe mean PSQI score of the participants was 8.06± 3.3, and 64.5% had a score ≥5, indicating poor sleep quality overall. The MMSE scores were significantly lower in nursing home residents compared to community-dwelling individuals (22.2 ± 4.4 vs. 25.2 ± 3.4; p = 0.005). These differences in MMSE remained significant after adjustment for age and education (ANCOVA, p=0.006). Sleep latency was shorter (p = 0.022) and daytime dysfunction was higher (p = 0.028) among nursing home residents, while sleep efficiency was significantly better in those living at home (p = 0.030). A weak but statistically significant negative weak correlation was found between PSQI and WHO-5 scores (r = -0.299, 95% CI: -0.51 to -0.05, p = 0.018). However, no significant correlation was observed between PSQI and MMSE scores.
conclusionsNursing-home residents exhibited lower cognitive performance and poorer sleep efficiency compared to community dwellers, reflecting group differences.
