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

Previous studies showed a bidirectional relationship between renal function decline and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (C-PAP) treatment was shown to preserve the kidney function in OSA patients. This study aims to investigate the progression of long-term renal function in OSA patients treated with different PAP strategies (patients were divided into two groups, fixed C-PAP or other PAP-automatic and bilevel pressure). Comorbidities and 10-years survival were also evaluated. We performed a retrospective, observational, single-center, cohort study, including the first 40 consecutive patients enrolled from 2009 in the Respiratory disease Unit at the Vercelli University Hospital database. The patient inclusion criteria were: age ≥ 18 years with OSA syndrome according to AASM (American Academy of Sleep Medicine) guidelines. Creatinine serum levels (mg/dL) and the estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR, mL/min calculated by CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation)) were measured at 3 different time points: at baseline, 3 years and 8 years after PAP treatment. The Kaplan-Meier survival curves stratified according to PAP treatment and compliance have been reported together with log-rank test estimation. In our study, we found a significant creatinine serum level reduction after 3 years of fixed C-PAP treatment (
