Association between diverse obesity indicators and sleep quality in elderly Chinese people: a National Study.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
Background: The association between obesity indicators and sleep quality remains unclear among elderly Chinese people. Therefore, we aimed to assess this association by utilizing data from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS). Methods: A total of 10,505 participants aged 65 and above from the 2018 CLHLS were included. Calculate body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) and weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) based on measured weight, height, and waist circumference. Based on BMI values, individuals were classified as underweight (<18.5 kg/m Results: The prevalence of poor sleep quality was 47.06%. There are significant differences in obesity indicators and other factors between the two groups of people with good sleep and poor sleep. After adjusting for potential confounding factors (including demographics, socioeconomic status, lifestyle behaviors, health-related issues and activities of daily living), our analyses revealed significant negative associations of BMI [OR 0.96 (95% CI 0.95-0.98)], WC [OR 0.99 (95% CI 0.98-0.99)] and WHtR [OR 0.18 (95% CI 0.09-0.35)] with poor sleep quality. RCS regression also showed that BMI, WC, WHtR and WWI were all strongly negatively correlated with poor sleep quality. Conclusions: In elderly Chinese people, overweight/obese elderly people may have a better sleep quality compared to elderly people with normal weight, while underweight elderly people are unfavorable for sleep quality.
