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.

2 · The registry

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

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is associated with increased insulin resistance. Triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) is a simple marker of insulin resistance; however, it has been investigated only by two studies in OSA. The aim of this study was to evaluate TyG in non-diabetic, non-obese patients with OSA. A total of 132 patients with OSA and 49 non-OSA control subjects were included. Following a diagnostic sleep test, fasting blood was taken for the analysis of the lipid profile and glucose concentrations. TyG was calculated as ln(triglyceride [mg/dL] × glucose [mg/dL]/2). Comparison analyses between OSA and control groups were adjusted for age, gender, body mass index (BMI) and smoking. TyG was higher in men (
