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.

Abstract

backgroundExcessive sleepiness (ES) is a common symptom of OSA, which often persists despite primary OSA therapy. This phase III randomized withdrawal trial evaluated solriamfetol (JZP-110) for the treatment of ES in adults with OSA.

methodsAfter 2 weeks of clinical titration (n = 174) and 2 weeks of stable dose administration (n = 148), participants who reported improvement on the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) and had numerical improvements on the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) were randomly assigned to placebo (n = 62) or solriamfetol (n = 62) for 2 additional weeks. Coprimary end points were change from weeks 4 to 6 in MWT and ESS.

resultsIn the modified intention-to-treat population (n = 122), MWT mean sleep latencies and ESS scores improved from baseline to week 4 (from 12.3-13.1 to 29.0-31.7 minutes and from 15.3-16.0 to 5.9-6.4, respectively). From weeks 4 to 6, participants treated with solriamfetol maintained improvements (least squares [LS] mean [SE] changes of -1.0 [1.4] minutes on MWT and -0.1 [0.7] on ESS), whereas participants treated with placebo worsened (LS mean [SE] change of -12.1 [1.3] minutes on MWT and 4.5 [0.7] on ESS); LS mean differences between treatments were 11.2 minutes (95% CI, 7.8-14.6) and -4.6 (95% CI, -6.4 to -2.8) on MWT and ESS, respectively. Fewer participants treated with solriamfetol reported worsening on the PGI-C from weeks 4 to 6 (20% vs 50%; P = .0005). Common adverse events included headache, dry mouth, nausea, dizziness, and insomnia.

conclusionsThis study demonstrated maintenance of solriamfetol efficacy and safety over 6 weeks. TRIAL REGISTRY: ClinicalTrials.gov; No.: NCT02348619; URL: www.clinicaltrials.gov; EudraCT No.: 2014-005515-16.
