Effect of High-Flow Nasal Cannula on Sleep-disordered Breathing and Sleep Quality in Patients With Acute Stroke.

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.

Abstract
Introduction Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is common after stroke. Although the standard treatment of SDB is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) ventilation, the patient's intolerance and discomfort result in low adherence rates. Alternatively, high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) may be useful as it reduces upper airway collapse with low level of positive pressure and well tolerability. The aim of this study was to investigate whether HFNC therapy reduces SDB and improves sleep quality with higher compliance rate. Methods We included acute stroke patients with SDB for the assessment of apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) >5/h using WatchPAT 200 (Itamar Medical Ltd, Caesarea, Israel). Patients who met inclusion criteria received HFNC therapy (40 L/min) with monitoring by WatchPAT. AHI, oxygen desaturation index (ODI), sleep efficiency, and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep were compared in patients with and without HFNC therapy. We also evaluated the patient's comfort of HFNC therapy (discomfort or not). Results Among 17 patients assessed for AHI, 12 received HFNC therapy. HFNC therapy was not adhered in two patients due to intolerance. Eight patients remained for final analysis. There were no differences in SDB and sleep quality with and without HFNC therapy as follows: HFNC therapy vs control; AHI 24.9 ± 20.1 vs 21.3 ± 15.0/h (p = 0.63), ODI 16.2 ± 16.5 vs 12.9 ± 12.3/h (p = 0.54), sleep efficiency 80.4 ± 12.9 vs 87.1 ± 6.2 (p = 0.28), percentage of REM sleep 19.4% ± 9.6% vs 27.6% ± 8.9% (p = 0.07). Two patients (17%) complained of discomfort among eight patients. Conclusion HFNC therapy did not improve SDB and sleep quality. Nonadherence and discomfort were observed in HFNC therapy. We need a large trial to confirm this result.
