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.

Abstract

introductionObstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea syndrome (OSAHS) is a sleep-related breathing disorder characterised by partial or complete obstruction of the upper respiratory tract. Owing to their relevant physiological anatomy, patients with OSAHS often experience severe respiratory complications, such as airway obstruction and hypoxaemia, during painless gastroscopy. In addition, the use of the shared airway approach increases the difficulty of airway management. At present, simple and effective tools for airway management for use during gastroscopy in clinical practice are lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate whether a novel oropharyngeal airway designed for use in endoscopy can effectively relieve airway obstruction and prevent hypoxaemia. METHOD AND ANALYSIS: In this prospective, randomised, controlled clinical study, 130 patients with OSAHS diagnosed via polysomnography monitoring will be randomly divided into two groups. The experimental group will receive the novel oropharyngeal airway, whereas the control group will receive a conventional bite block. The primary outcome will be the incidence of hypoxia (75%≤SpO ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The Institutional Review Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University (Shandong Qianfoshan Hospital) approved the experimental protocol on 22 August 2024 (ethics number: YXLL-KY-2024(084)). The results of this study will be reported in peer-reviewed journals and relevant academic conferences or related research platforms. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT06594380.
