The impact of OSA and CPAP treatment on cell adhesion molecules' night-morning variation.
Article in Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
purposeObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been related to vascular inflammation and production of endothelial cell adhesion molecules (CAMs). We aimed to determine night-morning variation of CAMs in patients with OSA compared to controls and the effect of one-night continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment on them.
methodsNonsmoking men went through a full-attended polysomnography (PSG) study. Participants with moderate to severe OSA went through another PSG study while being treated with CPAP. Participants who did not have OSA composed the control group. Serum levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), and E-selectin were measured before and after sleep on both nights.
resultsOf 30 men, 20 had moderate to severe OSA while 10 did not. Night and morning ICAM-1 levels of patients with OSA were significantly higher than controls (p = 0.002 and p < 0.0001 respectively), while both night and morning VCAM-1 and E-selectin levels were not. Morning ICAM-1 levels of controls were significantly lower than night levels (p = 0.031), while morning ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and E-selectin levels of patients with OSA and morning VCAM-1 and E-selectin levels of controls were not. After CPAP treatment, the morning ICAM-1 levels, but not VCAM-1 levels, of patients with OSA were significantly lower than night levels (p = 0.006) and E-selectin levels showed a tendency for reduction (p = 0.06).
conclusionsOSA is associated with elevated night and morning ICAM-1 levels in adult men with OSA. Even one night of CPAP treatment restores the normal night-morning variation of ICAM-1 levels and may have an effect on E-selectin levels, as well.
