Are symptoms of obstructive sleep apnoea related to good continuous positive airway pressure compliance?
Article in ERJ open research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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 apnoea (OSA) is a common disease that can be treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). CPAP tolerance may be associated with its compliance. Even though there are several predictors for good CPAP compliance, there are limited data available on the correlation between CPAP compliance and OSA symptoms. This study aimed to evaluate this correlation. We conducted a cross-sectional study and enrolled adult patients diagnosed with OSA through polysomnography who had experience using a CPAP machine. A self-report questionnaire was used to evaluate CPAP compliance and study variables. Predictors of CPAP compliance were analysed using stepwise multivariate logistic regression analysis. There were 68 patients with OSA who completed the questionnaire during the study period. Of those, 14 (20.59%) exhibited good CPAP compliance. Only fatigue as a symptom was an independent factor associated with good CPAP compliance, with an adjusted odds ratio of 5.380 (95% CI 1.274-22.719). In conclusion, fatigue was the only symptom associated with good CPAP compliance in patients with OSA.
