Sleep Quality and Patient Activation in Chronic Disease: A Cross-Sectional Mediation Analysis.
Article in Clocks & sleep, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Patient activation enhances self-management of chronic illnesses, and sleep quality is vital for health. The link between activation and sleep quality and the mediating role of chronic diseases remain underexplored. This study examined the association between patient activation and sleep quality, variations across chronic disease groups, and whether chronic diseases mediate this relationship. A population-based cross-sectional survey in South Tyrol (Italy) included 2090 adults (55.0% response rate). Patient activation was measured using the Patient Activation Measure (PAM-10), and sleep quality was measured using the Brief Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (B-PSQI). The presence and number of chronic diseases were self-reported. Bivariate analyses, multiple linear regression, and mediation analyses (PROCESS) were performed. Among the participants, 918 (44%) reported at least one chronic disease. These individuals had poorer sleep (B-PSQI mean: 5.05 ± 3.26 vs. 3.66 ± 2.65;
