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

backgroundIt has not been determined that demand valve oxygen therapy is effective for nocturnal hypoxia. A portable oxygen concentrator with an auto-demand oxygen delivery system (auto-DODS; standard, high, and extra high) has recently been developed to improve oxygenation and comfort. This oxygen concentrator can supply a pulsed flow when it detects apnoea. The aim of this study is to demonstrate that this newly developed portable oxygen concentrator with an auto-demand function is non-inferior to a continuous-flow oxygen concentrator for nocturnal hypoxemia.

methodsTwenty patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or interstitial pneumonia will be randomized to receive a portable oxygen concentrator with an auto-DODS or a continuous-flow oxygen concentrator during sleep. The primary endpoint is mean oxygen saturation (SpO2) during the total sleep time. The secondary endpoints are the ratios of time that the oxygen concentrator spends in each sensitivity mode (standard, high, and extra-high) and at a constant pulse rate to the total sleep time, the total time and ratio of time for which SpO2 is less than 90% during the total sleep time, the lowest value of SpO2 during the total sleep time, the mean and highest pulse rate during the total sleep time, the apnoea index during the total sleep time, the total sleep duration itself, and comfort and reliability as measured by numerical rating scale and questionnaires. DISCUSSION: If the auto-DODS demonstrates non-inferiority to continuous flow in oxygenation during sleep, the auto-DODS can be used even at night, and the patient will need only 1 device.

trial registrationThe study was registered on Aug 23, 2019 (jRCTs052190042).
