Potential Therapeutic Effect of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure on Laryngopharyngeal Reflux in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
To investigate the potential therapeutic effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment on laryngopharyngeal reflux in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients, we performed a retrospective analysis of data prospectively collected from patients who underwent CPAP therapy after being diagnosed with moderate to severe OSA between January 2019 and May 2020. Subjects were asked to complete the reflux symptom index (RSI) questionnaire before and after CPAP. Additionally, a laryngoscopic examination was performed to evaluate objective endoscopic findings and determine reflux finding score (RFS). A total of 46 patients were included in the analysis. Overall, significant decreases in mean RSI score (10.85 ± 6.40 vs. 8.80 ± 7.99,
