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 present study investigated the changes of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and sleep ability in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). A total of 684 patients who were admitted to Xuzhou Central Hospital between June 2012 and June 2016 were enrolled to serve as the experimental group and 192 healthy subjects were selected as the control group. Polysomnography was performed on both groups, and serum TNF-α and IL-8 levels were measured by ELISA. Pearson's correlation analysis was used to analyze correlations between factors. Compared with control group, the levels of TNF-α and IL-8, the morning systolic and diastolic pressure in OSAHS group were significantly higher (P<0.01). Furthermore, the mean oxygen saturation (MSaO2) and lowest oxygen saturation (LSaO2) of the OSAHS group were significantly lower compared with those in control group (P<0.01). Results also indicated that TNF-α was positively correlated with apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), morning systolic and diastolic pressure (r=0.621, 0.464, 0.539; P<0.05), and negatively correlated with MSaO
