Association of alternative polysomnographic features with patient outcomes in obstructive sleep apnea: a systematic review.
Synthesis in Journal of clinical sleep medicine : JCSM : official publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
objectivesPolysomnograms (PSGs) collect a plethora of physiologic signals across the night. However, few of these PSG data are incorporated into standard reports, and hence, ultimately, under-utilized in clinical decision making. Recently, there has been substantial interest regarding novel alternative PSG metrics that may help to predict obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)-related outcomes better than standard PSG metrics such as the apnea-hypopnea index. We systematically review the recent literature for studies that examined the use of alternative PSG metrics in the context of OSA and their association with health outcomes.
methodsWe systematically searched EMBASE, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews for studies published between 2000 and 2022 for those that reported alternative metrics derived from PSG in adults and related them to OSA-related outcomes.
resultsOf the 186 initial studies identified by the original search, data from 31 studies were ultimately included in the final analysis. Numerous metrics were identified that were significantly related to a broad range of outcomes. We categorized the outcomes into 2 main subgroups: (1) cardiovascular/metabolic outcomes and mortality and (2) cognitive function- and vigilance-related outcomes. Four general categories of alternative metrics were identified based on signals analyzed: autonomic/hemodynamic metrics, electroencephalographic metrics, oximetric metrics, and respiratory event-related metrics.
conclusionsWe have summarized the current landscape of literature for alternative PSG metrics relating to risk prediction in OSA. Although promising, further prospective observational studies are needed to verify findings from other cohorts, and to assess the clinical utility of these metrics.
