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

The relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains unclear. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the impact of OSA on subsequent cardiovascular events after PCI.We searched the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane library from their inceptions to August 5, 2017. We included cohort studies that described the association between OSA (based on apnea-hypopnea index) and cardiovascular outcomes after PCI with stenting. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), including all-cause or cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, repeat revascularization, or heart failure. Outcomes data were pooled using random effects models and heterogeneity was assessed with the I statistic.We identified 9 studies with 2755 participants. The prevalence of OSA in patients treated with PCI ranged from 35.3% to 61.8%. OSA was associated with increased risk of MACE after PCI (pooled risk ratio [RR] 1.96, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.36-2.81, P < .001, I = 54%). Between-study heterogeneity was partially explained by sample size (2 studies with ≤100 participants; RR 9.12, 95% CI: 2.69-31.00, I = 0% vs 7 studies with >100 participants; RR 1.64, 95% CI: 1.23-2.18, I = 35%). Moreover, the presence of OSA significantly increased the incidence of all-cause death (4 studies), cardiovascular death (4 studies), and repeat revascularization (7 studies) in patients undergoing PCI.Patients with OSA are at greater risk of subsequent cardiovascular events after PCI. Whether treatment of OSA prevents such events warrants further investigation.
