Poor sleep health is associated with worse cardiometabolic risk among rural and urban schooled Nigerian adolescents.

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
There is limited evidence on the association between sleep health and cardio-metabolic risk (CMR) in Sub-Saharan African adolescents. Using a cross-sectional design, we assessed the association between sleep health and CMR, including 900 adolescents aged 13-19, attending six rural and six urban schools, in Osun State, Nigeria. Sleep health variables included sleep quality and duration (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), risk of sleep apnea (Teen STOPBANG), and daytime sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale for Children and Adolescents). A continuous CMR-score was calculated using z-scores of mean arterial pressure (MAP), body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and random blood glucose. We analysed the association between sleep health, place of residence, and CMR using generalized linear models. Urban adolescents presented worse sleep health indicators and higher BMI, WC, and CMR-score (p < 0.05). Overall, poorer sleep quality was associated with higher CMR-score (β = 0.02), BMI z-score (β = 0.04), and WC z-score (β = 0.03) (p < 0.05), and lower sleep duration with higher CMR-score (β = 0.04), BMI z-score (β = 0.11), and WC z-score (β = 0.07) (p < 0.05). Risk of sleep apnea was associated with higher CMR-score (β = 0.08), MAP z-score (β = 0.17), and WC z-score (β = 0.14) (p < 0.05). Improving the sleep health of adolescents may prevent cardiometabolic diseases later in life.
