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 disturbance is common among those with cognitive impairment, potentially contributing to negative outcomes. Furthermore, growing evidence suggests that sleep disturbance is associated with the onset and progression of cognitive decline. There is therefore increasing interest in treating sleep disturbance in people with cognitive impairment.Non-pharmacological treatments for sleep disturbance are unhindered by many of the adverse effects associated with pharmacological treatments, yet evidence supporting their use in clinical practice is often lacking. Cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is the first-line treatment for insomnia and has demonstrated effectiveness in people with cognitive impairment in a small number of trials. Digital CBT-I (dCBT-I) overcomes many of the obstacles associated with accessing CBT-I (such as limited availability of therapists and transportation) whilst presenting others (such as internet access and digital literacy). Aim: To undertake a mixed-methods analysis of the usability and acceptability of a dCBT-I intervention ( Methods: Participants will be community-dwelling adults aged ≥50 years with cognitive decline and probable insomnia. Study partners (being caregivers, family or friends of participants) will be recruited, if available, to examine how their involvement influences usability and acceptability.Participants will be given access to Conclusion: By examining barriers and facilitators to the usability and acceptability of
