Effect of an electroencephalogram-verified 20-min power nap on fatigue and daytime sleepiness among emergency doctors following night shifts: A randomized controlled trial.
Article in Turkish journal of emergency medicine. 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 assess whether a 20-min power nap reduces fatigue and daytime sleepiness among emergency doctors following night shifts.
methodsWe conducted a randomized controlled trial involving 54 emergency doctors randomly assigned to intervention (
resultsBoth groups demonstrated comparable baseline fatigue levels with median FAS scores of 28 (interquartile range [IQR]: 21-32) versus 26 (IQR: 21-30) for intervention and control groups, respectively (
conclusionA 20-min power nap significantly reduces fatigue and daytime sleepiness among emergency doctors following night shifts, with large effect sizes indicating substantial practical benefits and rapid sleep onset indicating severe sleep deprivation. This practical intervention supports implementing evidence-based power nap protocols in emergency departments.
