Prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea in venous thromboembolism: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposePrevious studies revealed that the concomitant prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) was high, but the results were inconclusive due to various limitations. We aimed to systematically review the literature on the prevalence of OSA in patients with VTE.
methodsRelevant studies were identified on multiple electronic databases through July 2018. The DerSimonian-Laird random effects model was used to calculate the pooled prevalence of OSA, moderate-to-severe OSA, and severe OSA in VTE patients, respectively. Sensitivity analysis was performed based on diagnostic methods of OSA and races.
resultsA total of 11 studies comprising 895 patients were available for the meta-analysis, but one study was excluded because of the between-study heterogeneity in the following analysis. The pooled prevalence of OSA, moderate-to-severe OSA, and severe OSA in VTE patients were 70% (95% CI = 65%, 75%), 41% (95% CI = 29%, 54%), and 19% (95% CI = 15%, 23%), respectively. Sensitivity analysis indicated that the prevalence was similar in different diagnostic methods, but the contributions of races to OSA were complex. Although the lower prevalence of all OSA and moderate-to-severe OSA as compared with Western countries, Asian countries have similar or even a little bit higher prevalence of severe OSA.
conclusionsFindings from this meta-analysis supported that the prevalence of OSA in VTE patients was strikingly high. Screening for OSA in patients with VTE is necessary for developing effective treatment strategies.
