Impact of sleep quality and physical activity on hypertension in adults: Findings from rural eastern India.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundSleep disturbance is linked to cardiovascular disease and high blood pressure, with obesity being a major risk factor. Sleep quality has emerged as a crucial metric for assessing the health and wellbeing of adulthood. Our cross-sectional study has attempted to understand sleep, body mass index (BMI), and physical activity's impact on hypertension. MATERIALS AND
methodsHypertension diagnosis was done using a digital sphygmomanometer among 168 subjects. The physical activity was assessed using the global physical activity questionnaire, developed by World Health Organization. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used for assessing sleep quality across the study population. Logistic regression was used for sleep quality and hypertension associations while controlling for potential confounders.
results48.2% of the hypertensive population showed poor quality of sleep in our study. The Global PQSI score was significantly increased (11.56 ± 3.4) in hypertensive subjects, and physical activity influenced the strength of the association between hypertension and sleep quality, with a significant sleep-physical activity interaction (
conclusionAdults who get poor sleep have a higher chance of developing hypertension, and this association depends on their BMI and level of physical activity.
