Association of Sleep Duration, Midday Napping with Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Hypertension.
Article in Clinical epidemiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objective: This study aimed to assess the associations of sleep duration, midday napping and the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with hypertension. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study enrolling 11,524 hypertensive participates from the Chinese Hypertension Registry Study. Information on sleep duration and midday napping were obtained by a self-administered questionnaire. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to estimate odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the risk of AF. Results: Compared with sleeping 6 to ≤8 hours/night, those reporting shorter sleep duration (≤5 hours/night) had a greater risk of AF (OR 1.95; 95% CI 1.28-2.95) in the fully adjusted model, while longer sleep (≥9 hours/night) was not significantly associated with the risk of AF. Compared with nonhabitual nappers, nappers had a higher risk of AF (OR 1.28; 95% CI 1.03-1.60) in the fully adjusted model. Moreover, we observed significant joint effects of sleeping ≤5 hours/night and nap (OR 2.13; 95% CI 1.09-4.14) on the risk of AF after adjusting for confounding factors. Conclusion: Short sleep duration and midday napping were independently and jointly associated with higher risks of AF in patients with hypertension.
