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
Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a growing global health crisis, affecting hundreds of millions worldwide. Poor sleep quality-often under-recognized-impairs glycemic control and accelerates diabetes-related complications. Despite its clinical relevance, data on sleep quality among T2DM patients in Somalia are virtually nonexistent. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and determinants of poor sleep quality among T2DM patients in Mogadishu, Somalia. Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted between November 2024 and January 2025 at Mogadishu Somali-Turkiye Recep Tayyip Erdogan Training and Research Hospital. A total of 311 adults with T2DM were selected using systematic sampling. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and validated instruments including the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and Oslo Social Support Scale (OSSS-3). Logistic regression analysis was employed to identify variables independently associated with suboptimal sleep quality. Results: Overall, 54.0% of participants reported poor sleep quality (95% CI: 48.3-59.7). Multivariable analysis identified several significant predictors, including female gender, unemployment, low income, substance use, physical inactivity, and depressive symptoms. Clinical factors such as comorbidities, poor glycemic control, and diabetes-related complications were also independently associated with suboptimal sleep quality. Conclusion: Over half of T2DM patients in Mogadishu experience poor sleep quality, influenced by sociodemographic, behavioral, psychological, and clinical factors. The findings highlight the need to incorporate sleep evaluation and targeted interventions-focusing on mental health, lifestyle, and metabolic control-into routine diabetes care.
