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

Objectives: This meta-analysis aimed to systematically evaluate and synthesize existing evidence to elucidate the association between sleep quality and cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI). Methods: PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Biology Medicine Disc (CBM), Wanfang data, and the VIP Journal Resource Integration Service Platform (VIP) were systematically searched inception to July 2025. The quality of the literature was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and the Joanna Briggs Institute Cross-sectional Study Evaluation Checklist. The effect size Results: A total of 4,037 articles were retrieved, and 13 articles (2,908 participants) were selected for further analysis. The meta-analysis based on the correlation coefficient Conclusion: Studies have found a moderate negative correlation between sleep quality and CRCI, suggesting that poorer sleep quality is associated with more severe cognitive impairment. Systematic review registration: PROSPERO RD420251090655.
