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
ObjectivesDelayed sleep-wake phase disorder (DSWPD) most commonly affects young individuals (adolescents and young adults), but it is often undetected in clinical practice. Despite several reports suggesting a link between DSWPD and depression, no systematic review has investigated this association. The aim of this systematic review was to determine whether DSWPD is associated with depression among young individuals.MethodsMEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, and CINAHL Plus were searched up to 29 July 2024. Primary studies investigating DSWPD and depression among young individuals were eligible. Methodological quality and risk of bias was assessed with the National Institute of Health (NIH) Quality Assessment Tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-Sectional Studies. Common-effect models were conducted to examine the relationship between DSWPD status (categorical variable: yes or no) and depression severity (continuous variable). PROSPERO ID: CRD42023458889.ResultsSixteen studies were included with 766 participants being evaluated against the diagnostic criteria for DSWPD from the International Classification of Sleep Disorders. Thirteen out of 15 studies demonstrated that young individuals with DSWPD had a significantly greater severity of depressive symptoms than young individuals without DSWPD. NIH quality assessment scores ranged between 5 and 9 (out of a total of 11). DSWPD status had a significantly large effect on depression severity in the common-effect model (
