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

As the incidence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) increases worldwide, the need for a new screening method that can compensate for the shortcomings of the traditional diagnostic method, polysomnography (PSG), is emerging. In this study, data from 4014 patients were used, and both supervised and unsupervised learning methods were used. Clustering was conducted with hierarchical agglomerative clustering, K-means, bisecting K-means algorithm, Gaussian mixture model, and feature engineering was carried out using both medically researched methods and machine learning techniques. For classification, we used gradient boost-based models such as XGBoost, LightGBM, CatBoost, and Random Forest to predict the severity of OSAS. The developed model showed high performance with 88%, 88%, and 91% of classification accuracy for three thresholds for the severity of OSAS: Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) [Formula: see text] 5, AHI [Formula: see text] 15, and AHI [Formula: see text] 30, respectively. The results of this study demonstrate significant evidence of sufficient potential to utilize machine learning in predicting OSAS severity.
