Investigation of Night Pain in Geriatric Regional Degenerative Pain and Associated Conditions.

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
backgroundChronic and night pain are common challenges in the geriatric population, often complicating pain management. This study aimed to evaluate sleep quality, night pain frequency, and associated factors in regional degenerative pain among elderly patients to identify individuals at risk for night pain early.
methodsA total of 130 geriatric patients diagnosed with degenerative osteoarthritis and experiencing regional chronic pain were included. Demographic data, sleep quality, and bone mineral density were assessed. Patients were grouped based on the presence of night pain, and comparisons were made accordingly.
resultsNight pain was reported by 95 patients (73%), and 76 participants (58%) had poor sleep quality. Those with night pain showed significantly worse sleep quality (P < .001). No significant differences were found between groups in terms of pain location, gender, or number of chronic conditions (P = .41, P = .368, P = .206). However, night pain was significantly more common among participants with low education levels or illiteracy (P = .006). Resistance to simple analgesics was also higher in the night pain group (P = .009). Bone mineral density values did not significantly differ between groups (P = .785, P = .398, P = .232).
conclusionEarly identification of geriatric patients at risk for night pain is essential for optimal pain management. Poor sleep quality, inadequate response to analgesics, and lower education levels were significantly associated with night pain. Proactive follow-up and individualized treatment approaches may improve outcomes in this vulnerable population. Cite this article as: Ay BK, Yıldır CZ.
