Application of automatic detection based on overnight airflow and blood oxygen in patients with sleep disordered breathing.

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
purposeTo explore the feasibility of automatic detection based on air flow and blood oxygen in patients with sleep disordered breathing.
methodsThis study proposes a new automated detection method for sleep disordered breathing based on overnight airflow and blood oxygen saturation (SaO
resultsFor all patients, the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), apnea index (AI) and hypopnea index (HI) for our automated scoring and manual reports were highly correlated (the Pearson correlation index were 0.996, 0.995 and 0.928, respectively, P < 0.001). However, HI for Remlogic automated scoring and clinical manual reports was poorly correlated (r = 0.316, P < 0.001). Compared with the manual reports, mean absolute error of AHI, AI and HI between the two automated methods (this study vs. Remlogic software) were statistically significant (P < 0.0001). Furthermore, among the three subgroups (group 1, AHI < 15/h, group 2, 15/h ≤ AHI < 30/h and group 3, AHI ≥ 30/h), the mean error and MAE of AHI between the two automated methods were also statistically significant (P < 0.01).
conclusionsGenerally, good agreements were shown between our automated detection and clinical reports. This procedure is robust and effective, which would significantly shorten the analysis time.
