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 and Aims: Poor sleep quality is widespread among nurses, adversely affecting their well-being and job performance, with various contributing factors. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of poor sleep quality and its associated factors among nurses in Southeast Iran. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 260 eligible nurses, randomly selected from hospitals affiliated with Zahedan University of Medical Sciences, using a multistage sampling method. Hospitals were stratified by type, wards grouped by specialty, and nurses randomly chosen from selected wards to ensure diverse institutional and work environment representation. Data were collected from April 20 to June 20, 2023. Sociodemographic information, lifestyle factors, work-related characteristics, occupational stressors, and sleep quality were gathered. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to measure sleep quality, while the Occupational Role Questionnaire (ORQ) assessed occupational stressors. Simple and multiple logistic regression models were utilized to identify predictors of poor sleep quality. Results: Poor sleep quality was reported by 73.8% of nurses and was significantly associated with being married (OR = 1.82, 95% CI (1.02, 3.26); Conclusion: The study underscores the high prevalence of poor sleep quality among nurses in Southeast Iran and identifies key contributing factors. These findings highlight the need for targeted interventions in nursing education and workplace policies to address sleep-related issues, ultimately enhancing the well-being of nurses and improving patient care outcomes.
