Influence of interface and position on upper airway collapsibility assessed by negative expiratory pressure.

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
purposeNegative expiratory pressure (NEP) is a simple technique for the evaluation of upper airway collapsibility in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Most studies evaluated NEP using a mouthpiece that may exclude the cephalic portion of the upper airway. We hypothesize that NEP determination is influenced by interface and position.
methodsWe evaluated patients with suspected OSA using polysomnography, NEP (-5 cmH
resultsWe studied a total of 86 subjects (72 male, age 46 ± 12 yrs, body mass index 30.0 ± 4.4 kg/m
conclusionsInterface and position influence NEP. NEP evaluated with nasal mask in supine position may convey more relevant information for patients under investigation for OSA than when evaluated with mouthpiece.
