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

STUDY

objectivesObesity is often considered mandatory for the diagnosis of Metabolic Syndrome (MS). Data on the prevalence of MS in non-obese patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is scarce. This study was aimed to determine the prevalence of MS in non-obese patients with OSA. METHODOLOGY: All consecutively diagnosed patients with OSA between October 2018 and November 2019 were screened for metabolic syndrome. Patients with OSA and BMI < 25 kg/m

resultsDuring the study period, 502 patients were diagnosed with OSA. MS was observed in 35% of patients with NOOSA compared to obese patients with OSA (79%). In the NOOSA group, hypertension, impaired fasting glucose, diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia were observed in 65, 48, 14 and 61% respectively and all of these parameters were significantly more common in the obese group (p < 0.001). Parameters of OSA severity (apnea-hypopnea index or AHI, time spent below 90% saturated or T90, and nadir oxygen) were significantly more severe in the obese group with OSA. Approximately 83% of patients in the NOOSA group had at least two metabolic risk factors, compared to the obese OSA group, in which 95% had two or more metabolic risk factors. Sixty-four percent of patients with NOOSA with lean waist had at least two metabolic risk factors. At BMI cut-offs of < 25, < 27 and < 30 kg/m2; 35, 46 and 57% of patients with OSA respectively had metabolic syndrome.

conclusionMetabolic syndrome was observed in approximately one in three patients with OSA and BMI < 25 kg/m
