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

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). Nonetheless, whether OSA-risk determined by a simple screening questionnaire or indices quantifying nocturnal hypoxemia other than the conventional apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) by the home sleep apnea test (HSAT) associated with CSVD burden remains uncertain. Methods: From 2018 to 2021, we recruited patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA)/minor stroke from the Queen Mary Hospital Acute Stroke Unit and TIA/Stroke Outpatient Clinics. Logistic regression models were applied to determine the association of baseline OSA-risk (on STOP-BANG questionnaire) or HSAT-derived indices quantifying nocturnal hypoxemia with global burden/individual markers of CSVD on MRI. Indices included oxygen desaturation (≥3%) index (ODI), minimum oxygen saturation (SpO Results: In 283 patients with TIA/minor stroke (mean age 65 years, 64% men), OSA-risk was significantly associated with total CSVD score (multivariate-adjusted odds ratio: 1.23, 95% confidence interval 1.01-1.51), presence of lacunes [1.39 (1.09-1.79)] and burden of basal ganglia PVSs [1.32 (1.06-1.67)]. In 85/283 patients who completed HSAT, neither AHI, minimum SpO Conclusion: In patients with TIA/minor stroke, high OSA-risk was associated with a greater CSVD burden. Oxygen desaturation indices (ODI and DesDur) rather than AHI were independently associated with global CSVD burden, indicating that longer and more severe desaturations may contribute to the pathogenesis of CSVD.
