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
Background: Sleep disturbances can significantly impair emotional intelligence (EI), particularly among professionals in high-stress occupations. This study evaluated the effectiveness of sleep therapy (ST) in enhancing EI and identified key predictors of therapeutic success. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 471 adults from high-stress professions who completed a 12-week intervention at Bengbu Third People's Hospital. Among them, 214 received psychoeducational treatment and 257 underwent sleep therapy. A case-control study was performed on the 257 sleep therapy patients. Pre- and post-treatment assessments measured EI components, sleep quality, psychological status, and physical health. Patients were stratified into high and low EI groups based on post-treatment EIS scores. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses identified predictors of EIS improvement. Results: Following the 12-week intervention, the ST group showed significantly greater improvement in total EIS score (60.87 Conclusion: Sleep therapy effectively enhances EI in high-stress professionals suffering from sleep disorders. Treatment efficacy is strongly influenced by adherence, baseline psychological and physical health status, and sleep quality improvements.
