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

backgroundSecondary pulmonary hypertension (SPH) predicts poor outcomes in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients. This study examines sex/racial disparities, predictors, and inpatient mortality in SPH-related OSA hospitalizations.

methodsWe used the National Inpatient Sample (2019) and ICD-10 codes to identify OSA-related hospitalizations with SPH. The burden of SPH and disparities by sex/race were assessed. We also compared the odds and predictors of in-hospital mortality in OSA patients with vs. without SPH.

resultsOf total adult OSA hospitalizations (

conclusionsThe prevalence of SPH with OSA was greater in females and Blacks, whereas males and Whites had higher subsequent inpatient mortality. More prospective studies are needed to understand the role of comorbidities on survival outcomes.
