Narrative review of contemporary treatment options in the care of patients with obstructive sleep apnoea.
Review in Therapeutic advances in respiratory disease, 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
Snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) are increasingly common conditions, and confer a significant health and socioeconomic burden. Furthermore, untreated OSA represents a significant mortality risk. Patients require careful assessment, including detailed clinical history and examination, sleep study and drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE). Although nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) is the gold standard treatment for moderate and severe OSA, multidisciplinary team assessment is often required to develop the best treatment plan for an individual, especially when nasal CPAP is poorly tolerated. There is a wide range of medical and surgical treatment options, and following appropriate patient selection and assessment, a focused site-specific, often multilevel, intervention is indicated. There is an increasing body of evidence in the literature supporting these multilevel interventions and with agreement on standardized outcome measures more trials are likely to improve the robustness of these data further.
