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

backgroundObesity is prevalent in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and negatively impacts diabetes outcomes. While studies in the general population have established a link between sleep duration and obesity, this relationship in T2D remains unclear.

objectivesTo assess the association between sleep duration and adiposity in patients with T2D.

methodsThis prospective study of adults enrolled in the SLEEP T2D study from 13 UK NHS Trusts. Sleep duration was self-reported using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and categorized as short (≤ 6 h/ night), long (> 9 h/night) or (normal > 6-9 h/night). Adiposity was assessed using body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference.

resultsAmong 229 patients (61% male, mean age 61.2 (

conclusionShort sleep duration is associated with higher adiposity measures (BMI and waist circumference) and weight gain in patients with T2D. Addressing sleep duration may reduce the burden of obesity in T2D, and future studies in this area are warranted.
