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

purposeThe relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and diabetic microvascular complications (DMC) are controversial. Whether low education is associated with increased risk of DMC independently of poor lifestyles are currently unknown. The aim of this study is to explore the independent associations of different PSG index and educational attainment with risks of DR, DKD, and DPN.

methodsA cross-sectional study of 330 patients with T2DM who underwent overnight polysomnography (PSG) tests. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the associations of PSG index and educational attainments with DR, DKD, and DPN.

resultsThe prevalence rates of DMC were 30.6% for DR, 24.9% for DKD, and 64.6% for DPN. All PSG index (AHI, REM-AHI, NREM-AHI, the severity of OSAS, ODI, MAI, and lowest SaO

conclusionPSG index were not significantly associated with DMC. But lower education was significantly associated with increased risks of DR and DKD, and strategies to prevent DMC for those with low education should be strengthened.
