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

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is a common disorder that has recently received much attention by the medical community due to its potentially serious physiological consequences. The clinical significance of OSA results from hypoxemia and sleep fragmentation caused by collapse of the airway, which leads to apnea or hypopnea during sleep. This paper reviews common surgical techniques used for clinical management of OSA patients, with emphasis on jaw advancement surgical procedures.
