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

Background: Sleep disturbances among university students have increasingly been linked to academic stress, lifestyle choices, and psychosocial factors, all of which elevate the risk of insomnia through the demands of academic work and a propensity for irregular sleep schedules. This study evaluated the determinants of sleep quality and sleep hygiene behaviors among university students. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted across five universities in Chittagong, Bangladesh, involving undergraduate students selected via stratified random sampling. Student groups were compared using descriptive statistics, Results: Out of 1000 participants, the mean age was 22.05 ± 1.55 years, and 49.6% were classified as poor sleepers (PSQI > 5). Significant gender differences were found ( Conclusion: Poor sleep quality is prevalent among university students and is primarily influenced by gender, academic discipline, socioeconomic background, and co-occurring psychosocial stressors. Targeted interventions are needed to improve educational outcomes through sleep hygiene education and context-specific strategies.
