Investigating the dynamic relations between maternal sleep and depression across pregnancy.

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: Sleep problems and depression symptoms are highly prevalent and dynamic during pregnancy with impacts on both maternal and offspring health. However, few studies have examined their bidirectional relations across pregnancy to determine whether sleep is an independent predictor of later depression symptoms, and vice versa. The purpose of this study is to investigate the dynamic relations between prenatal maternal sleep problems and depression symptoms three times across pregnancy. Method: Pregnant participants ( Results: Findings reveal that both sleep problems and depression symptoms independently predict one another across pregnancy. All associations covaried for baseline sleep problems and depression symptoms. Specifically, more sleep problems in early pregnancy predicted higher depression symptoms mid-pregnancy (β=.14, Conclusion: Both prenatal maternal sleep and depression independently predict one another across pregnancy. Assessing sleep in early pregnancy may help with the detection of worsening depression, and vice versa, across the perinatal period.
