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

backgroundWe examined the prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) and the impact of transfemoral aortic valve implantation (TAVI) on SDB.

methods79 patients underwent cardiorespiratory polygraphy (PG) before TAVI (CoreValve™), 62 of them a second PG after the procedure.

resultsForty-nine (62 %) patients had obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), 25 (32 %) central sleep apnea (CSA), and 5 (6 %) presented without significant SDB (apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) < 5/h). Among the 62 patients evaluated before and after TAVI, 36 (58 %) had OSA, 22 (36 %) CSA, and 4 patients (7 %) no SDB. AHI was significantly higher in CSA patients than in OSA patients (34.5 ± 18.3 vs. 18.0 ± 12.6/h, p < 0.001). Successful TAVI had a significant impact on CSA but not on OSA: CSA patients with optimal TAVI results experienced a significant reduction in central respiratory events (AHI 39.6 ± 19.6-23.1 ± 16.0/h, p = 0.035), while no changes were detected in OSA patients (AHI 18.8 ± 13.0-20.25 ± 13.4/h, p = 0.376). In contrast, in patients who developed at least moderate periprosthetic aortic regurgitation (AR > I), CSA increased significantly (AHI 26.3 ± 13.2-39.2 ± 18.4/h, p = 0.036), whereas no acute change was seen in patients with OSA (AHI 10.5 ± 7.8-12.5 ± 5.0/h, p = 0.5).

conclusionOSA and CSA are prevalent in more than 90 % of patients undergoing TAVI for severe aortic valve stenosis. Successful TAVI had no significant impact on OSA but improved CSA. In case of an acute change from pressure overload (aortic stenosis) to acute volume overload (aortic regurgitation after TAVI), central, but not obstructive, sleep apnea deteriorated.
