The association between parent educational attainment and adolescent sleep health.
Article in Sleep medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo examine the association between parent educational attainment and adolescent sleep duration, timing, and sufficiency, to better understand potential sleep health disparities and identify at-risk populations in order to combat the growing public health epidemic of adolescent sleep deprivation.
methodsThis cross-sectional study used data from a study of 9th grade students from two diverse high schools in Barrow County, Georgia, collected during the early spring semester of 2020. The primary outcomes of interest were student self-reported sleep duration, timing, and sufficiency, which was defined as students who reported getting enough sleep. Linear and logistic regressions were conducted for each of these outcomes, adjusted for race/ethnicity, sex, free/reduced lunch status, and whether the student's parents work traditional hours. Exposure was defined as the highest level of parent educational attainment.
resultsA total of 405 students were included in this study. There was a statistically significant association between parental education and weekend sleep timing. In adjusted models, students whose parents did not finish high school had 0.2 times the odds of going to sleep before midnight than students whose parents received a graduate degree (95% CI [0.1, 0.6]), and students whose parents completed college had 0.4 times the odds (95% CI [0.2, 0.8]). Other sleep outcome measures were not found to be statistically significant.
conclusionsThe association between parent educational attainment and adolescent sleep timing demonstrates a potential area to identify at-risk students and reduce sleep health disparities to inform the development of equitable and effective sleep health interventions.
