1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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/

objectivesSleep disturbances are prevalent among pediatric cancer survivors (PCSs) and their caregivers, often leading to poorer dietary choices and reduced physical activity. Additionally, the sleep quality and health behaviors of parents and children can affect each other. This study examined bi-directional associations between PCSs and their parents' sleep quality and health-related behaviors.

methods127 parent-child dyads enrolled in a behavioral intervention for pediatric cancer survivors (Mage = 11.04; 53.2% female) and their families completed the Patient Sleep Quality Inventory (PSQI) and USDA Parent or Child Food and Activity Questionnaire (FAQ). Two actor-partner interdependence models, using multi-level modeling and adjusting for relevant confounds, estimated the bidirectional associations between the parent-child dyad's sleep quality and composite food and physical activity quality.

resultsAfter controlling for partner BMI and actor and partner age, the effect of children's PSQI scores on parent's FAQ scores was statistically significant (β = -0.23,

conclusionsBetter food and activity quality for parents is linked to improved sleep quality for children, while children's poor sleep quality is associated with lower food and activity quality in parents. The findings highlight the prospective value of systems-focused clinical interventions to manage sleep quality and promote positive health behaviors among PCS.
