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

A major limitation in the study of sleep breathing disorders in mouse models of pathology is the need to combine whole-body plethysmography (WBP) to measure respiration with electroencephalography/electromyography (EEG/EMG) to discriminate wake-sleep states. However, murine wake-sleep states may be discriminated from breathing and body movements registered by the WBP signal alone. Our goal was to compare the EEG/EMG-based and the WBP-based scoring of wake-sleep states of mice, and provide formal guidelines for the latter. EEG, EMG, blood pressure and WBP signals were simultaneously recorded from 20 mice. Wake-sleep states were scored based either on EEG/EMG or on WBP signals and sleep-dependent respiratory and cardiovascular estimates were calculated. We found that the overall agreement between the 2 methods was 90%, with a high Cohen's Kappa index (0.82). The inter-rater agreement between 2 experts and between 1 expert and 1 naïve sleep investigators gave similar results. Sleep-dependent respiratory and cardiovascular estimates did not depend on the scoring method. We show that non-invasive discrimination of the wake-sleep states of mice based on visual inspection of the WBP signal is accurate, reliable and reproducible. This work may set the stage for non-invasive high-throughput experiments evaluating sleep and breathing patterns on mouse models of pathophysiology.
