The Relationship Between Subacute Pain, Chronic Pain, and Sleep Disorder: A Cross-Sectional Study Based on NHANES (2009-2010).
Article in Brain and behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundChronic pain (CP) and subacute pain (SAP) represent major public health challenges, frequently coexisting with sleep disorders (SD). However, the association between pain duration and SD remains poorly characterized.
methodsThis cross-sectional study analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 2009-2010). CP, SAP, and SD were assessed through structured interviews conducted by trained personnel using the Computer-Assisted Personal Interviewing (CAPI) system. Multivariable logistic regression models were employed to evaluate the relationship between pain duration (CP vs. SAP) and SD, while subgroup analyses explored potential effect modifications by analgesic use and pain intensity.
resultsAmong 1,109 participants, after adjusting for confounders, individuals with CP exhibited an 85% higher likelihood of SD compared to those with SAP (OR = 1.85, 95% CI: 1.39-2.47, p < 0.001). Pain that worsened during the day (OR = 1.95, 95% CI: 1.35-2.80, p < 0.001), persisted at rest (OR = 2.38, 95% CI: 1.65-3.43, p < 0.001), failed to be alleviated by exercise (OR = 1.59, 95% CI: 1.20-2.11, p = 0.001), and awakened from (OR = 2.70, 95% CI: 2.06-3.55, p < 0.001) was significantly associated with SD. Subgroup analyses revealed no significant interaction effects of analgesic use or pain intensity on the CP/SAP-SD association (p for interaction > 0.05).
conclusionThese findings suggest that pain (both subacute and chronic) may be an independent risk factor for SD, supporting the need for early intervention for SAP.
