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
STUDY
objectivesHypoventilation associated with sleep-disordered breathing in inpatients is associated with higher risk of morbidity, hospitalizations, and death. In-hospital titration polysomnography qualifies patients for positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy and optimizes settings, but impact is unknown. This study describes a process for in-hospital sleep testing and evaluates subsequent PAP adherence and readmission.
methodsA retrospective cohort of patients with hypoventilation and in-hospital titration polysomnography with available PAP data were analyzed to determine whether PAP adherence was associated with 90-day readmission. Absolute differences were obtained using logistic regression models. Models were adjusted for body mass index, age, and Elixhauser index. PAP adherence and nonadherence were defined as ≥ 4 and < 4 hours of daily average use prior to readmission or first 90 days postdischarge.
resultsEighty-one patients, 50.6% male, with age (mean ± SD) 61.1 ± 13.5 years were included. Comorbid sleep disorders included 91.4% with obstructive sleep apnea and 23.5% with central sleep apnea. Twenty-eight of 52 (53.8%) nonadherent and 6 of 29 (20.7%) adherent patients had 90-day readmissions. Eleven (13.6%) patients (all nonadherent) were readmitted within 2 weeks of discharge. The adjusted model showed a 35.6% (95% confidence interval 15.9-55.2%) reduction in 90-day readmission in the adherent group compared with the nonadherent group (
conclusionsAdherence to optimized PAP therapy after in-hospital titration polysomnography in patients with hypoventilation may decrease readmissions.
