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

Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common and independently associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). This study aimed to investigate the relationship between apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), a measure of OSA severity, and prevalence of AF in a large series of patients with HCM. Methods and Results A total of 555 patients with HCM who underwent sleep evaluations were retrospectively included. Data from polysomnography studies, echocardiography, and baseline clinical characteristics were collected. OSA was present in 327 patients (58.9%). Patients with OSA or higher AHI quartiles were older, more often male, had a higher body mass index, and more clinical comorbidities. The prevalence of AF increased in patients with OSA (23.9% versus 13.6%,
