Self-rated health is associated with sleep quality in teacher education students.

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 problems are common among university students and are associated with lifestyle behaviors, health status, and overall wellbeing. Examining factors associated with sleep quality in teacher education students may provide valuable insights into student wellbeing and sleep-related health risks. Objective: This study examined whether health behaviors, self-rated health, and objectively measured cardiorespiratory fitness predict sleep quality among teacher education students. Methods: A total of 228 students completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and a questionnaire assessing alcohol consumption, cigarette and energy drink use, body mass index, and self-rated health. Cardiorespiratory fitness was assessed using the 20-metre shuttle run test. Participants were classified as good or poor sleepers using the standard PSQI cut-off (>5). Hierarchical logistic regression was conducted in three steps: Model 1 included age, sex, and relationship status, Model 2 added health and health-related variables, and Model 3 included VO₂max. Results: Poor sleep quality was reported by 36.4% of students. In hierarchical logistic regression analysis, self-rated health was the only significant predictor of poor sleep quality. Compared with students reporting very good or excellent health, those reporting good health (OR = 2.91; 95% CI: 1.54-5.47; Conclusion: Self-rated health showed the most consistent association with sleep quality among teacher education students, suggesting that students' perceptions of their overall health may serve as a simple indicator of wellbeing in this population.
