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) has a relatively high prevalence of 3-7% in the general population in western industrialized countries. The prevalence is higher in older patients and in patients with cardiac or metabolic disorders. In the general surgical population patients with OSA are often unrecognized prior to surgery so that unexpected problems can occur due to the higher risk of airway collapse. Severe apnea can result even hours later and especially after surgery of the upper airway. Anesthesists and ear nose and throat surgeons are equally responsible for the perioperative surveillance. The article will show the importance of the preoperative identification of OSA patients and the perioperative risk management in the different risk phases apart from surgery. Although the importance of guidelines is very high there are no mandatory guidelines in Germany in contrast to the USA and the implementation should be given priority.
