Obstructive Sleep Apnea as a Predictor of Arrhythmias in 24-h ECG Holter Monitoring.
Article in Brain sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
A relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and abnormalities in 24-h electrocardiogram (ECG) Holter monitoring has not been sufficiently documented. The aim of this study was to analyze the relation between the occurrence and the severity of OSA and the parameters of ECG Holter monitoring in a group of patients with diagnosed OSA. Ninety-four patients with clinical suspicion of OSA were qualified for the study (mean age 53.7). All participants underwent a medical history, laboratory tests, 24-h ECG Holter monitoring, and single-night video-polysomnography (vPSG) using the American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommendations. A group of patients with diagnosed OSA was characterized by more frequent occurrence of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) and ventricular arrhythmias (VPC). A statistically significant positive correlation was shown between the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and average heart rate, supraventricular arrhythmias (SVPC) pairs, SVT, and pauses >2.5 s. In regression analysis, higher AHI constituted an independent predicator for the increased number of pauses >2.5 s, SVT, and SVPC pairs in 24-h ECG Holter monitoring. In summary, patients with OSA are characterized by the increased number of abnormalities in 24-h ECG Holter monitoring.
