The Ignored Parameter in the Diagnosis of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome: The Oxygen Desaturation Index.
Article in Turkish archives of otorhinolaryngology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 42 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
objectiveThe apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) does not provide information about the apnea depth and length. We aimed to evaluate the correlation of the oxygen desaturation index (ODI) with AHI and the subjective symptoms because it is known that hypoxia plays an important role in morbidity and complications of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).
methodsWe reviewed the data of patients who applied to our clinic between 2010 and 2014 and underwent polysomnography (PSG) with a diagnosis of suspected sleep apnea. The demographic and anthropometric data of the patients were recorded. Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) and values of AHI and ODI were analyzed in PSG.
resultsA total of 321 patients were divided into four groups, according to AHI as follows: 82 (25.5%) common snoring, 77 (24%) mild obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), 71 (22.1%) moderate OSA, and 91 (28.3%) severe OSA. A strong correlation was detected between AHI and ODI (p<0.005 and r=0.904) in all patient groups. There was a positive correlation between AHI and ESS (p<0.05 and r=0.435), but the correlation of ESS with ODI was stronger than that with AHI (p<0.05 and r=0.504).
conclusionThe subjective symptoms of sleep apnea syndrome seem to be closely related to oxygen desaturations. Hypoxia during apnea periods of OSA is important; therefore, we suggest that ODI is as valuable as AHI in diagnosing and grading the OSAS.
