Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients With Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Disease and COPD.
Observational study in Journal of clinical sleep medicine : JCSM : official publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
STUDY
objectivesDespite the clinical and prognostic significance of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs), there have been few studies about the possible predictors of OSA and the effect of OSA on quality of life in patients with CRDs. The objectives were to identify physiological and clinical parameters that predict the occurrence and severity of OSA and to investigate the effect of OSA on quality of life in patients with CRDs.
methodsSeventy-three patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and 77 patients with fibrotic interstitial lung disease (ILD) underwent overnight polysomnography (PSG) and pulmonary function testing and completed clinical questionnaires. The oximetry tracing was interpreted blindly with respect to the PSG results.
resultsThe prevalence of OSA was 44% and 62% in COPD and ILD, respectively. The COPD assessment test item scores related to sleep quality and daily vitality were worse among patients with OSA than among patients without OSA. The STOP-BANG questionnaire (cutoff point ≥ 3) and oxygen desaturation index from the oximetry recording (oxygen desaturation index (ODI) were associated with OSA in CRDs. The STOP-BANG questionnaire with a cutoff point ≥ 3 or 6 had the highest sensitivity and specificity, respectively, in detecting OSA in CRDs. ODI had the best accuracy in identifying OSA and was independently associated with the apnea-hypopnea index in CRDs.
conclusionsWe found OSA to be common and associated with worse sleep quality and less daily vitality in patients with advanced CRDs. The STOP-BANG questionnaire with different cutoff points may help rule in or rule out OSA. Overnight oximetry can be used as a screening tool for OSA and can assist the clinical evaluation of OSA in patients with CRDs.
