Assessment of Sleep Quality in Adolescents with Overweight and Obesity Using the Adolescent Sleep Hygiene Scale (ASHS).

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
backgroundAdolescent overweight and obesity are a public health problem with an epidemic trend. There is growing evidence that sleep quality correlates to body weight. The aim of this study was to investigate, sleep quality in adolescents with obesity/overweight.
methodsA total of 100 adolescents with overweight/obesity aged 12-18 years were enrolled. Anthropometric parameters were recorded and a laboratory investigation in the fasting state [glucose, insulin, cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), triglycerides, uric acid and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)] was performed. Insulin resistance was calculated by the Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance index (HOMA-IR). Sleep quality was assessed with the Adolescent Sleep Hygiene Scale (ASHS) questionnaire.
resultsAccording to ASHS, 93% of the participants were classified as "Good Sleepers" (GSs) (score > 3.8) and 7% as "Poor Sleepers" (PSs) (score < 3.8). PSs had a statistically higher body mass index (BMI) compared to GSs (
conclusionsSleep quality, as reflected by the ASHS score, was associated negatively with BMI, fasting insulin levels, and insulin resistance. Furthermore, a gender difference was observed, as adolescent males were found to achieve a higher overall ASHS score compared to females.
