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

objectivesAdhering to management guidelines, including routine follow-up and education, is crucial for the effective management of chronic diseases such as diabetes. Uncontrolled diabetes is linked to poor sleep quality. We used nationally representative data from community-dwelling Koreans to investigate potential associations between non-adherence to diabetes management and poor sleep quality.

methodsOf the 228 340 participants in the 2018 Korea Community Health Survey, we analyzed data from 68 246 participants aged 65 years and older. Based on their diabetes status and adherence to diabetes-related tests (glycated hemoglobin, fundus examination, and urine microalbuminuria) and management education, study participants were divided into 3 groups: no diabetes, adherence, and non-adherence. Outcome variables included poor overall sleep quality and sleep disturbances, as measured by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index.

resultsThe study included 934 participants in the adherence group (2.0%) and 13 420 in the non-adherence group (20.2%). Participants displaying non-adherence were significantly more likely to report poor overall sleep quality (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.09; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.04 to 1.13) and to experience sleep fragmentation, nocturia, pain during sleep, and difficulty falling asleep compared to participants without diabetes. Even in the earlier stage of diabetes, non-adherent participants were more likely to report poor sleep quality (aOR, 1.06; 95% CI, 1.00 to 1.18).

conclusionsPatients with diabetes who do not follow management guidelines are more likely to experience poor sleep quality than those without diabetes. Emphasizing diabetes management and increasing awareness of management strategies may improve sleep quality among patients with this disease.
