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

The primary objective of this study was to investigate bedroom environment and parental awareness surrounding junior and high school students. A secondary aim was to explore the relationship between these factors and sleep-related problems in adolescents. A web-based questionnaire survey was conducted in October 2023 with responses from 590 parents of junior high school students and 607 parents of high school students. The survey assessed bedroom environment, parental awareness, and adolescents' lifestyles and sleep. Descriptive statistics were used to determine the actual conditions of the bedroom environment and parental awareness. To examine the factors associated with sleep-related problems in adolescents, we conducted logistic regression analysis. Approximately 40% of the adolescents had bedrooms with east-facing windows, and more than half used blackout curtains. Seventy percent of parents of junior high school students and 60% of parents of high school students paid attention to adolescents' sleep duration. Logistic regression analyses showed that sleep-related problems were not significantly associated with the bedroom environment, whereas higher parental awareness of ensuring adequate sleep time was associated with reduced odds of insufficient sleep (OR = 0.36 in junior high school students, OR = 0.49 in high school students; p < 0.05) and late chronotype (OR = 0.57 and 0.63, respectively; p < 0.05) in both groups. This study clarified the bedroom environment and parental awareness of adolescents. While bedroom environment showed no association with sleep-related problems, parental awareness remained crucial in addressing these issues in both junior and high school students.
