Sleep-Disordered Breathing and 24-Hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring in Renal Transplant Patients: Longitudinal Study.
Observational study in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is considered a strong risk factor for hypertension in the general population. This disturbance is common in end-stage kidney disease patients on long-term hemodialysis and improves early on after renal transplantation. Whether SDB may be a risk factor for hypertension in renal transplant patients is unclear. Methods and Results We investigated the long-term evolution of simultaneous polysomnographic and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitoring recordings in a cohort of 221 renal transplant patients. Overall, 404 paired recordings were made over a median follow-up of 35 months. A longitudinal data analysis was performed by the mixed linear model. The apnea-hypopnea index increased from a median baseline value of 1.8 (interquartile range, 0.6-5.0) to a median final value of 3.6 (interquartile range, 1.7-10.4;
