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

objectiveTo evaluate the application of various obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) screening scales in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

methodsOne hundred and two patients with acute ischemic stroke were enrolled continuously during July 2016 and March 2017 from Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine. All patients were assessed by the same physician with various OSA screening scales, including Epworth scale, Berlin questionnaire, STOP-Bang questionnaire, SOS scale, four-variable scale and its modified version. Polysomnography was performed in Sleeping Disorder Center on each patient. According to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) acquired from polysomnography, patients were divided into moderate-severe OSA group (AHI ≥ 15,

resultsThe ROC curves showed that the four-variable scale and its modified version had higher area under curve (0.806 and 0.807, both

conclusionsCompared with Epworth scale, Berlin questionnaire, STOP-Bang questionnaire and SOS scale, the four-variable scale and its modified version are more effective in screening of OSA for patients with acute ischemic stroke.
