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 explore older adults' perceptions and experiences of sleep and strategies used to cope with poor sleep quality.
methodA qualitative descriptive study was conducted with 27 purposively selected older adults from community and institutional settings in Bangka Belitung. Data were collected from June to August 2025 through in-depth interviews and analyzed thematically with triangulation, member checking, and adherence to COREQ guidelines.
resultsParticipants were mostly women aged 60-74 years, many widowed and with chronic conditions. Two themes emerged: poor sleep experiences and coping strategies. Common problems included difficulty initiating and maintaining sleep, nighttime awakenings, early awakening, and daytime fatigue. Sleep disruption was linked to psychological distress and environmental discomfort. Coping strategies included behavioral changes, spiritual practices, daytime naps, and activity adjustment.
conclusionThe findings suggest that sleep among participating older adults in Bangka Belitung is perceived as multidimensional, shaped by physiological, psychological, environmental, and spiritual factors, highlighting the need for culturally sensitive, community-based support beyond self-initiated strategies.
