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

Objective: To characterize comorbid circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders (CRSWDs) in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), identify factors independently associated with CRSWDs, and develop a risk prediction model for early screening and sleep health management. Methods: This retrospective study included 610 patients with CFS, who were randomly divided into a training cohort ( Results: Among the 427 patients with CFS in the training cohort, 208 (48.7%) had comorbid CRSWDs. Univariable analysis showed that gender, BMI, fatigue severity (Fatigue Scale-14, FS-14), slow-wave sleep (SWS, N3%), duration of screen use before bedtime and shift-work schedule type were significantly associated with CRSWDs ( Conclusion: Female sex, greater fatigue severity, reduced N3 sleep, and rotating shift schedules were independently associated with comorbid CRSWDs in patients with CFS. The model may be useful for early screening and risk stratification and may help inform sleep hygiene education and schedule-related health management in individuals at elevated risk.
