Physiological correlates to spontaneous physical activity variability in obese patients with already treated sleep apnea syndrome.
Article in Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesPhysical activity is promoted in patients with sleep disorders and obesity. The aim of the present study was to assess physiological factors influencing objectively measured spontaneous physical activity in already treated patients for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) by nocturnal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). SUBJECTS/
methodsFifty-five patients (age = 53 ± 3 years; body mass index (BMI) = 38 ± 3 kg/m
resultsAs expected, the number of steps per day (6879 ± 2511) and mean intensity of physical activity (1.38 ± 0.15 METs) were below the recommendations for obese population. In age-adjusted stepwise regression models, peak oxygen consumption (VO
conclusionsIn severe obese patients with OSA, exercise capacity, ventilatory requirement, and dyspnea perception were main physiological components of physical activity. These results emphasize the need to consider specific training interventions that increase ability to perform intense physical activity in obese OSA.
