Neuro-Ophthalmological Manifestations of Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Current Perspectives.
Review in Eye and brain, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a disease of obstructed airways during sleep that significantly impacts the quality of life and increases the risk of various systemic diseases. OSA has been studied as a risk factor for a number of neuro-ophthalmic conditions and a strong relationship has been established with non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). The incidence of glaucoma and stroke have also been significantly associated with OSA and are conditions that may also be seen by neuro-ophthalmologists. Patients with NAION have a significantly higher incidence of OSA and OSA diagnosis significantly increases the risk for NAION development. Non-compliance with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in OSA patients has also been found to be a risk factor for fellow-eye involvement and there is increasing evidence to suggest that every patient with NAION should be formally evaluated with polysomnography. The relationship between OSA and idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) has also been studied, but the relationship between these two conditions is less clear. There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine eye examinations in OSA patients for papilledema and conducting a sleep study for a newly diagnosed IIH patient should be left to the discretion of the clinician based on other symptoms and risk factors of OSA.
