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

introductionObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common condition in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It may worsen renal function in CKD patients and is associated with uncontrolled blood pressure. Although OSA is found in up to 80% of CKD patients, there are limited data available on its clinical features in patients with and without CKD.

objectiveThis study aimed to identifying the differences in the clinical characteristics of OSA between CKD and non-CKD OSA patients and determine the clinical predictors for CKD in OSA patients.

methodsThis was a retrospective study conducted at Khon Kaen University's Srinagarind Hospital in Thailand between July and December 2018. The inclusion criteria were diagnosis with OSA

resultsDuring the study period, there were 178 OSA patients who met the study criteria, 88 (49.44%) of whom were in the OSA with CKD group. Both age and body mass index were comparable between OSA patients with CKD and those without (age: 59 and 57 years, respectively; body mass index: 30 and 29 kg/m

conclusionsFemale sex, high systolic blood pressure, and Mallampati score of 3-4 were suggestive of OSA with CKD. Obstructive sleep apnea patients with one or more of these predictors may have a high risk of CKD.
