Mindfulness may be a novel factor associated with CPAP adherence in OSAHS patients.

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
backgroundPoor adherence to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) remains the greatest obstacle to effective treatment of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). The purpose of the present study was to identify if mindfulness is associated with CPAP adherence of OSAHS patients.
methodsNewly diagnosed patients with OSAHS completed questionnaires including the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and had experienced an overnight CPAP titration. Participants returned to the sleep center for a scheduled research visit after 30-day CPAP treatment at home. Demographics, disease severity, and device-related variables were collected. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to build a multivariate predictive model for the outcome variable, mean daily CPAP use over 30 days.
resultsMean CPAP use was 4.7 ± 2.4 h/night for the study sample of 100 patients and 67% were classified as CPAP adherent. MAAS scale was 45.2 ± 18.8, whereas only 13% of patients expressed anxiety or depression. MAAS scales were significantly higher in the CPAP adherent group compared to the non-adherent group (49.5 ± 14.5 vs 40.8 ± 14.2, p < 0.001) with mean hours of daily CPAP use over 30 days for the adherent group (5.7 ± 1.4 h/night) compared to the non-adherence group (3.0 ± 1.7 h/night). There were differences between the two groups in HADS depression, AHI, lowest SaO
conclusionsThis study found a significant independent association of dispositional mindfulness with CPAP adherence. As a novel factor, mindfulness may play an important role in CPAP adherence.
