Simple obstructive sleep apnea patients without hypertension or diabetes accelerate kidney dysfunction: a population follow-up cohort study from Taiwan.
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 25 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
backgroundsObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in patients on hemodialysis, but its correlation with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is not clear. We aimed to clarify the relationship between OSA without hypertension or diabetes and incidence of CKD in Taiwan.
methodsThis population-based cohort study consisted of patients with newly diagnosed OSA between 2000 and 2009. The comparison cohort was matched for age, sex, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension. All subjects previously diagnosed with acute or chronic kidney disease were excluded. The primary end point was newly diagnosed CKD.
resultsWe identified 6866 subjects with OSA during the 10-year study period. The median duration until development of CKD in the OSA cohort was 3.2 years, 2.5 months earlier than that in the non-OSA cohort. After exclusion of hypertension and diabetes, 4319 OSA patients was identified and the hazard ratio (HR) of CKD with OSA was 1.37 (95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.05-1.77; p = 0.019). In the subgroup analysis, an increased incidence of CKD in OSA was observed in women (HR, 1.41; 95 % CI, 1.12-1.78; p = 0.0036).
conclusionsThis longitudinal population-based cohort study provides evidence that patients with OSA even without diabetes or hypertension are at higher risk of developing CKD over the next 3 years and nearly 2.5 months earlier than the non-OSA cohort, particularly women.
