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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of obstructive sleep apnea and sleep quality in adolescents with and without polycystic ovary syndrome.

methodsA case-control study was conducted on 82 adolescent girls admitted to the pediatric endocrinology clinic of a training and research hospital in Turkey. Data were collected using the Participant Information Form, Stop and Stop-Bang Questionnaire, Cleveland Adolescent Sleepiness Questionnaire, Sleep Quality Scale, and Sleep Variables Questionnaire.

resultsIt was determined that the mean Stop and Stop-Bang scores of adolescents in the healthy and polycystic ovary syndrome groups were similar and had a high level of obstructive sleep apnea risk. Daytime sleepiness levels were similar in both groups, but daytime sleepiness mean scores were a little higher in healthy adolescents. In addition, it was determined that the level of sleepiness at school and during transportation was statistically significant and high in the healthy group, and the sleep quality of all adolescents was moderately similar.

conclusionOur data reveal the importance of a comprehensive assessment of sleep health, including obstructive sleep apnea, as well as duration, timing, and quality in adolescents when considering polycystic ovary syndrome. Healthcare professionals should consider the sleep health of all adolescents presenting to endocrine outpatient clinics.
