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

backgroundWe aimed to evaluate the relationship between Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet adherence and sleep quality, quantity, inflammation, and oxidative stress in Iranian adults.

methodsThis cross-sectional research was carried out in 2021 and 535 individuals contributed to the present analysis. Using a standardized 168-item food frequency questionnaire, we assessed the subjects' typical dietary intakes and estimated DASH score. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was employed to assess both quantity and quality of sleep. Serum inflammatory and oxidative stress biomarkers were measured through fasting blood sampling.

resultsHigher adherence to DASH (vs. lower adherence) was inversely associated with poor sleep quality and short sleeping [fully-adjusted model for poor sleep quality: OR

conclusionAmong studied middle-aged Iranian population, adherence to DASH dietary pattern was associated with improved sleep quality and quantity, especially in women. None of the biomarkers acted as mediators in these relationships.
