Article in Iranian journal of child neurology, 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
Objectives: Despite the significant frequency of sleep disorders in premature infants, the specific causes remain unclear. Thus, pediatricians and other caregivers may be able to prevent the onset of sleep disorders in children. Accordingly, the present study aimed to assess the predictors of sleep habits among preschoolers born preterm. Materials & Methods: This cross-sectional, retrospective study included 174 preterm infants from the Semnan clinic in Iran between 2019 and 2020. All children between the ages of four and seven years old who were born before 37 weeks were included. Information on demographic variables and the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) was collected from the participants. The Research Ethics Committee of the Semnan University of Medical Sciences, Semnan, Iran (IR. SEMUMS.REC.1396.235). Results: The average age of children and mothers were 5.7±0.96 and 32.14 ±2.02 years old, respectively. The probability of familial conflict (OR = 2.73, 95% CI = 0.97-7.71, and P = 0.041), sleepwalking (OR=2.56, 95% CI=1.30-5.06, and p=0.006) and seclusion increased (OR=2.68, 95% CI=0.91-5.13, and P=0.034) in CSHQ 1< to 2 compared with CSHQ >2 in adjusted model History of psychological disorder, sleep drugs use, withdrawn and previously diagnosed sleep disorders, depression, nightmares, and sleeping alone no had significant association with CSHQ score. Conclusion: The study concluded that stress factors, such as family conflicts, behavioral changes like increased seclusion, as well as internal issues like sleepwalking, should be regularly investigated in children referred to clinics for sleep problems. Healthcare professionals need to assess how these symptoms may worsen or impact the effectiveness of treatment.
