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

The present chapter summarizes the clinical and preclinical findings collected to date, showing the impact of developmental alcohol exposure on sleep physiology. Sleep is a complex physiological process that plays a pivotal role in maintaining overall health and well-being via its involvement in regulating physiological, cognitive, and emotional functions. Clinical studies consistently report a high prevalence of sleep disturbances in children and adolescents diagnosed with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs), including short sleep duration, sleep anxiety, bedtime resistance, increased sleep fragmentation, and parasomnias. It is established that alcohol consumption during gestation impairs brain development, leading to structural and functional alterations that may affect sleep architecture. In addition, clinical investigations have found a significant correlation between sleep-wake cycle disruptions and cognitive impairments after developmental alcohol exposure, and sleep disturbances are increasingly recognized as a substantial problem among FASD patients. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these disturbances are poorly understood. Surprisingly, few studies with animal models of FASDs have characterized the effect of developmental ethanol exposure on sleep physiology, and these have focused on high doses. This chapter provides an overview of the current knowledge, reports the sleep disturbances in FASD patients, and then summarizes the gap in understanding the molecular and physiological mechanisms.
