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

backgroundUnlike the well-established association between sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and chronic heart failure, the relationship between SDB and severe aortic stenosis (AS) is not well investigated. Given the increasing prevalence of AS, and the improving prognosis of high risk AS patients attributable to transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), the prevalence and impact of SDB needs to be better understood. METHODS AND

resultsIn this study, 140 patients with severe AS underwent polygraphy prior to TAVI. Clinical and hemodynamic parameters were recorded. Patients were followed for 573±405 days. We found that 99/140 patients (71%) had SDB with a mean apnoea-hypopnoea-index of 24±17/h. SDB was mild in 27%, moderate in 23% and severe in 21% of patients. In addition, 35 patients (25%) had obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), whereas 64 patients (46%) had central sleep apnoea (CSA). Patients with OSA had predominantly mild SDB (20/38 pts.), and patients with CSA mostly had severe SDB (24/29 pts.). The prevalence and distribution of OSA and CSA were independent of left ventricular function. Overall, 1 and 2 year survival rates (74% and 71%, resp.) did not differ significantly between patients without SDB or those with OSA and CSA (p=0.81).

conclusionsSDB, with a preponderance of CSA, was found to be highly prevalent in patients with high-grade AS scheduled for TAVI. SDB prevalence was independent of left ventricular function. Mortality after TAVI was not influenced by the type or severity of SDB.
