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

Chronic sleep restriction (SR) impairs multiple organs. Although exogenous melatonin counteracts SR-induced gut microbiota disruption, its role in protecting renal function and the involvement of gut microbiota remain unclear. To this end, we subjected mice to a 28-day SR paradigm with exogenous melatonin treatment or antibiotic-induced microbiota depletion. SR mice demonstrated significant renal dysfunction evidenced by elevated serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and uric acid levels compared to controls. Histopathological analysis revealed characteristic tubular abnormalities in SR mice, including epithelial degeneration and lumen dilation, with reduced expression of key renal filtration markers (
