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

purposeTo investigate associations between polysomnographic findings and the severity of upper airway obstructions during Muller's Maneuver (MM) and Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).

methodsThis was a prospective cohort study. Adult patients newly diagnosed with OSAS in a tertiary sleep center were included consecutively and evaluated by polysomnography and MM. They then underwent DISE in an operating room. The associations between polysomnographic findings and the severity of upper airway obstructions during MM and DISE were assessed. Also, the degree and pattern of obstructions were compared using a modified VOTE questionnaire.

results145 patients (mean age 41.5 ± 10.1 years) were enrolled. There were no associations between Respiratory Disturbance Index (RDI), mean and lowest O

conclusionAlthough there was no association between polysomnographic findings and the severity of obstruction in MM and DISE for the separate levels of the upper airway, obstruction severity may be assessed more accurately by total VOTE score, which is representative of RDI severity.
