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

The perioperative risk for patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and the optimal anaesthesiological management of these patients have not been well elucidated. The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea with significant symptoms is estimated to be 4% in men and 2% in women. However, in 80-95% of patients this syndrome is not sufficiently diagnosed. Thus identification of patients at risk and a thorough multidisciplinary diagnostic approach are essential for optimal perioperative management. The risk of perioperative complications, like cardiopulmonary compromise, and difficulties in airway management is elevated. The most important aspects of perioperative management include evaluation of intubating conditions, careful search for cardiopulmonary morbidity, permanent control of patient airways, sensible use of anaesthetics, sedatives, and narcotics, and strict monitoring of vital signs. If ambulatory nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy has been established preoperatively, this should be continued in the perioperative period. Postoperative monitoring should be performed in an intensive care or intermediate care unit. Controlled clinical studies on the best perioperative management of patients with obstructive sleep apnea are urgently required.
