Sleep and Cardiometabolic Health: Integration Into Internal Medicine Practice.
Review in Cureus, 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
Sleep is a critical and often underestimated determinant of cardiometabolic health, influencing neuroendocrine, inflammatory, and metabolic pathways. Sleep disorders are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, including hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. This article aims to review the main pathophysiological mechanisms linking sleep to cardiometabolic disease, summarize the most recent clinical evidence, and propose intervention strategies applicable to Internal Medicine practice. We conducted a narrative review of literature published between 2015 and 2025, including observational studies, clinical trials, meta-analyses, and international guidelines, with a focus on content relevant to Internal Medicine settings. Recent studies report that high-risk sleep patterns are associated with a 30-60% increased risk of cardiovascular events. Interventions like cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), and sleep hygiene education have demonstrated clinical benefit. Systematic evaluation and targeted intervention on sleep should be incorporated into the internist's routine care. Recognizing sleep as a modifiable risk factor is essential for evidence-based, patient-centered care.
