The impact of surgical intervention on peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets and natural killer cell activity in pediatric obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).

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
objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the impact of surgical intervention on peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets and natural killer (NK) cell activity in pediatric patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).
methodsA total of 36 OSAHS children, 32 children with tonsillar hypertrophy, and 30 healthy children were enrolled. Clinical data and polysomnography (PSG) results were collected. Peripheral blood samples were analyzed for T lymphocyte subsets, NK cells, and cytokine levels including Th1 (IFN-γ, IL-2, TNF-α), Th2 (IL-4, IL-10), and Th17 (IL-17).
resultsAt baseline, OSAHS children exhibited lower LSaO2 levels and higher AHI values compared to healthy children. They also showed decreased percentages of CD3 + T cells, CD4 + T cells, NK cells, and elevated CD8 + T cells and CD4+/CD8 + ratio. Levels of IFN-γ, IL-2, TNF-α, IL-4, and IL-17 were significantly lower in OSAHS children. Post-surgery improvements were observed in LSaO2, AHI, and immune markers at 3 months and 6 months. Pearson's correlation analysis revealed significant associations between LSaO2, AHI, and peripheral blood immune parameters at baseline and 6 months post-surgery.
conclusionSurgical intervention in pediatric OSAHS influences peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets and NK cell activity. Early intervention and monitoring of immune function are crucial for the recovery and healthy development of affected children.
