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.

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.

Abstract

Introduction: This decentralized, randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluated efficacy and safety of oral cannabigerol (CBG) in Veterans with sleep issues. Methods: After a 2-week run-in phase, participants received CBG (25 mg daily for 2 weeks, then 50 mg daily for a further 2 weeks) or placebo. The primary endpoint was change in sleep quality via the Medical Outcomes Study Sleep Problems Index II questionnaire (MOS-SS SPI-II). Additional endpoints included change in quality of life measured via the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule, version 2.0 instrument (WHODAS-2.0-12), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms evaluated via the PTSD Checklist for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-Fifth Edition (PCL-5 (PCL-5), and sleep actigraphy data via Fitbit. Results: A total of 63 participants were randomized to receive CBG ( Conclusion: While no firm conclusion on the efficacy of CBG in improving sleep can be made, the favorable safety profile supports future studies with CBG. ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05088018.
