Analysis of snoring to determine the site of obstruction in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
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 4 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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to integrate the physical findings of drug-induced sleep endoscopy with snoring sound analysis in patients with obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome (OSAS) and to compare the findings with previously published data.
methodsThis was a prospective, non-randomized study. Participants were all candidates for surgical treatment of OSAS and formed three groups, retropalatal (RP) obstructions, retrolingual (RL) obstructions, and multilevel (ML) obstructions. At the time of DISE, recordings of concurrent snoring sounds were made. Mean pitch frequency, peak sound frequency, and fundamental frequency (Fo) components were determined.
resultsA total of 55 participants had mean age 46.2 ± 7.3 years, mean BMI 30.0 ± 3.7 kg/m
conclusionsIt is feasible to apply sound analysis to determine the site of obstruction during DISE. Combining the data may help surgeons make more accurate assessments of the pattern of the disease.
