Respiratory Event-Induced Blood Pressure Oscillations Vary by Sleep Stage in Sleep Apnea Patients.
Article in Sleep disorders, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) pathologically stresses the cardiovascular system. Apneic events cause significant oscillatory surges in nocturnal blood pressure (BP). Trajectories of these surges vary widely. This variability challenges the quantification, characterization, and mathematical modeling of BP surge dynamics. We present a method of aggregating trajectories of apnea-induced BP surges using a sample-by-sample averaging of continuously recorded BP. We applied the method to recordings of overnight BP (average total sleep time: 4.77 ± 1.64 h) for 10 OSA patients (mean AHI: 63.5 events/h; range: 18.3-105.4). We studied surges in blood pressure due to obstructive respiratory events separated from other such events by at least 30 s (274 total events). These events increased systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) BP by 19 ± 7.1 mmHg (14.8%) and 11 ± 5.6 mmHg (15.5%), respectively, relative to mean values during wakefulness. Further, aggregated SBP and DBP peaks occurred on average 9 s and 9.5 s after apnea events, respectively. Interestingly, the amplitude of the SBP and DBP peaks varied across sleep stages, with mean peak ranging from 128.8 ± 12.4 to 166.1 ± 15.5 mmHg for SBP and from 63.1 ± 8.2 to 84.2 ± 9.4 mmHg for DBP. The aggregation method provides a high level of granularity in quantifying BP oscillations from OSA events and may be useful in modeling autonomic nervous system responses to OSA-induced stresses.
