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

Study Objectives: Sleep and adipokines are important regulators of cardiometabolic health, yet their relationship in older adults remains poorly understood. We examined cross-sectional and longitudinal associations of actigraphic sleep parameters with adipokine levels among older adults and explored sex and central obesity as potential moderators. Materials and Methods: We studied 350 participants aged ≥60 years (mean = 74.8 ± 8.3 years, 48.9% females, 19.4% black) from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging who completed 6.5 ± 1.1 nights of wrist actigraphy and provided fasting plasma for adipokine measurements. Predictors were total sleep time (TST), sleep onset latency, wake after sleep onset, sleep efficiency, and average wake bout length (AWBL); outcomes were adiponectin and leptin levels. Results: At baseline, longer AWBL was associated with lower adiponectin ( Conclusions: Longer sleep duration and shorter wake bouts are linked to more favorable adipokine profiles in older adults, especially in females and those with lower central obesity. Sleep may exert cardiometabolic effects through adipokines in older adults.
