Article in International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02576587 (Elucidation of the Influence of Sleep Apnea on Risk of Atrial Fibrillation), which is not on this map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from 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.

Abstract

Standard sleep apnea (SA) screening instruments perform suboptimally in the atrial fibrillation (AF) population. We evaluated and optimized common OSA screening tools in the AF population. Participants of the Sleep Apnea and Atrial Fibrillation Biomarkers and Electrophysiologic Atrial Triggers (SAFEBEAT, NCT02576587) age (±5 years)-, sex-, body mass index (BMI ± 5 kg/m
