Lifestyle intervention to improve sleep quality in Chinese college students: a systematic review.
Synthesis in Frontiers in psychiatry, 2026. 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
Objective: Sleep quality is a critical determinant of academic performance and overall health among college students. This systematic review aims to synthesize the evidence on the impact of lifestyle interventions on sleep quality among Chinese college students. Materials and methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in four databases including CNKI, PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. The review time is from the establishment of the above database to January 2026. Studies were included if they reported on lifestyle interventions and assessed sleep quality using validated measures in Chinese college students. The methodological quality of the included studies was evaluated using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool. Results: The search yielded 3993 records, and 16 studies were finally included. The interventions varied in composition but commonly included elements such as physical activity, stress management, and sleep hygiene education. Despite methodological heterogeneity, the collective findings suggest that lifestyle interventions significantly improve sleep quality compared to single or no interventions. Conclusion: In summary, the lifestyle intervention has a comprehensive and positive impact on the sleep quality of Chinese college students, especially in improving sleep quality, sleep disorders, and daytime dysfunction.
