Sleep and neurocognitive performance in middle-aged Latina women in a rural agricultural community: insights from the CHAMACOS Maternal Cognition Study.
Article in Sleep advances : a journal of the Sleep Research Society, 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
Study Objectives: To evaluate the connection between sleep measures and neurocognitive function among middle-aged Latinas in rural settings. Materials and Methods: We analyzed cross-sectional data from the 2022-2024 CHAMACOS Maternal Cognition study of middle-aged (mean age: 49) Latinas (n = 500) residing in a rural agricultural community in California. We measured nightly sleep duration, sleep quality, and weekly nap frequency via self-report. Participants completed the SOL-INCA-AD neurocognitive battery, yielding global and domain-specific (memory, executive function, verbal fluency) cognitive z-scores. We estimated associations between sleep measures and cognitive scores controlling for socio-demographic and health-related covariates. Results: Participants averaged 8.5 hours of sleep per night. Overall, 65% of participants reported no naps, 22% 1-2 naps, and 13% 3+ naps per week; 21% reported "restless or very restless sleep." There was an inverted U-shaped association between sleep duration and memory z-scores (linear 𝛽: 0.45, SE: 0.20; quadratic 𝛽: -0.03, SE: 0.01), but no statistically significant associations with other cognitive scores. Reporting 1-2 weekly naps (vs. none) was associated with higher memory (𝛽: 0.21, SE: 0.10) and lower verbal fluency (𝛽: -0.18, SE: 0.09) z-scores, but no statistically significant association with executive function or global z-scores. Reporting 3+ weekly naps (vs. none) was associated with lower memory z-scores (𝛽: -0.30, SE: 0.12). We observed no statistically significant associations between sleep quality and neurocognitive scores. Conclusions: Our results suggest the importance of sleep as a modifiable factor for ADRDs risk reduction among US Latinos and provide a foundation for longitudinal research on sleep and cognitive decline.
