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

Study Objectives: The relationship between Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and sleep health is unclear; therefore, we examined the association between SARS-CoV-2 infection and sleep impairment in Military Health System (MHS) beneficiaries. Methods: The Epidemiology, Immunology, and Clinical Characteristics of Emerging Infections of Pandemic Potential study enrolled MHS beneficiaries through Military Treatment Facilities and an online pathway. Eligibility criteria included those who were Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) positive or negative. A subset of participants completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire in addition to the General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) instruments. Bivariate analyses of PSQI score with COVID-19 history were extended by multivariable regression models to adjust for confounders. Sensitivity analyses adjusted for GAD-7, PHQ-9, and prior sleep disorders. Results: A total of 1228 Epidemiology, Immunology, and Clinical Characteristics of Emerging Infectious Diseases with Pandemic Potential participants completed a PSQI questionnaire. Over half were males (64%), white (77%), and Active-Duty Service Members (ADSM) (80%). The median age was 37 years, and 41% of the participants had a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection prior to completing the PSQI. Those with prior infection were more likely to have poor sleep health (PSQI > 10) compared to those without (32% vs 21%, Conclusions: Prior SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with poor sleep in ADSM and MHS beneficiaries. Further prospective and mechanistic studies are required to further understand this association.
