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

purposeThis study estimated thresholds for clinically important responses and minimally important differences for two indicators of improvement for the 10-item version of the functional outcomes of sleep questionnaire (FOSQ-10).

methodsParticipants with excessive daytime sleepiness with narcolepsy or obstructive sleep apnea received 12 weeks of solriamfetol treatment. Participants completed the FOSQ-10 and other patient-reported outcome measures, including the single-item patient global impression of change (PGI-C) assessment. Clinicians completed the single-item clinician global impression of change (CGI-C) for each participant. Data from the two studies were analyzed separately, both without regard to treatment assignment. In total, 690 participants (47% female, mean age 48 years, 77% Caucasian, 91% from North America) were enrolled. Two clinically important changes, defined as a minimally important difference and a clinically important response, were determined using distribution and anchor-based analyses. A receiver operating characteristic analysis was used to determine the optimal FOSQ-10 change threshold.

resultsSpearman correlations between change in FOSQ-10 scores and PGI-C and CGI-C were - 0.57 and - 0.49 for participants with narcolepsy and - 0.42 and - 0.37 for participants with obstructive sleep apnea. Receiver operating characteristic analysis suggested minimally important difference and clinically important response estimates of 1.7 and 2.5 and 1.8 and 2.2 points in narcolepsy and obstructive sleep apnea, respectively.

conclusionsMinimally important difference and clinically important response estimates for the FOSQ-10 for adults with excessive daytime sleepiness in narcolepsy or obstructive sleep apnea will be helpful for interpreting changes over time and defining a clinical responder.
