Perioperative complications in patients with sleep apnea following primary total shoulder arthroplasty: An analysis of 33,366 patients.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
introductionThe study evaluated whether sleep apnea (SA) patients undergoing total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) are at greater odds of: 1) medical complications; 2) implant-related complications; 3) readmission rates; and 4) costs.
methodsComplications and readmissions were assessed using logistic regression analysis. Welch's
results33,366 patients equally distributed in both cohorts. SA increased the odds of medical [Odds-ratio (OR)]: 2.52, p < 0.001) and implant-related complications (OR: 1.43, p < 0.001). Readmission rates were similar to controls (OR: 0.99, p = 0.878), whereas costs were higher (p < 0.001).
conclusionSA increases complications and costs following TSA.
