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

purposeThe aim of this study was to examine the joint role of demographic, clinical, psychological and family coping variables as predictors of adherence patterns to auto-adjusting positive airway pressure (APAP).

methodsA total of 153 patients diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) were assessed during a 6-months APAP treatment period. All patients underwent psychological evaluation prior to treatment (T1) and 1 to 3 months (T2) and 4 to 6 months (T3) post-APAP treatment. Of these, 107 patients maintained a stable adherence pattern to APAP during the treatment period.

resultsForty-seven percent were poorly adherent, 27 % were moderately adherent and 26 % were optimally adherent OSAS patients. Several factors distinguished the three adherence patterns and some of these emerged as the main predictors. In T1, the first model included age, apnea-hypopnea index, outcome expectations and coping spiritual support, as main predictors to distinguish adherence patterns. In T2 and T3, two models emerged adjusted to the variables of model 1 that included leakage, self-efficacy, mobilizing family acquire/accept support and reframing in model 2 and self-efficacy in model 3. Generally, the areas under the ROC curve, presented a good discrimination.

conclusionsFindings revealed an integrative heuristic model that accounted for the joint influence of demographic, clinical, psychological, and family coping factors on poor, moderate, and optimal adherence patterns.
