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

Regular exercise provides a variety of health benefits, including enhanced sleep quality and reduced symptoms of sleep disorders. The complex interaction between sleep and physical activity involves various physiological and psychological processes. Exercise has a positive effect on sleep, but factors such as age, sex, and fitness level, and specific exercise aspects such as intensity, duration, and timing play crucial roles. Understanding these dynamic interactions is essential to gaining insight into how exercise benefits sleep in both healthy individuals and those with sleep disorders. Given the positive effects of moderate exercise on sleep and its potential as a therapeutic option, this narrative review highlights the extensive benefits of exercise on sleep and underscores its important role in overall health and wellness.
