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

Since obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is known as a common cause of secondary hypertension, it is necessary to consider OSA a differential diagnosis in treating patients with hypertension. Apnea during sleep causes temporary and repeated hypoxia and subsequent sympathetic nerve activation. Furthermore, dysfunction of endothelial cells due to hypoxia is considered another mechanism leading to enhanced stiffness of the elastic artery and eventually, elevation of blood pressure (BP). As a result, OSA induces a nighttime or morning surge in BP, and long-standing severe OSA also causes daytime hypertension. Therefore, treatment of OSA may be important for BP control, especially in severe OSA cases. For the treatment of OSA, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is a major treatment option, though alternative devices may be useful in CPAP-intolerant cases.
