Slow-wave sleep and obstructive sleep apnea in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Article in Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeThis study aimed to analyze sleep architecture and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients with type 2 diabetes and clarify the association between sleep characteristics and glycemic control.
methodsAll participants underwent metabolism-related laboratory testing and a cross-sectional analysis of nocturnal polysomnography for sleep parameter analysis. Data were analyzed using the chi-squared test, a one-way analysis of variance, and Kruskal-Wallis test to compare the differences among three groups (type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, and control groups). The prevalence of OSA was evaluated using descriptive statistics and comparing the group divided into HbA1c quartiles. Univariate and multivariate linear regression analyses were used to determine factors associated with glycemic control.
resultsOf 75 study participants (age 57.3 ± 4.1 years, 32 men), there were 25 participants each in the type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, and control groups. Participants with type 2 diabetes had significantly decreased slow-wave sleep duration (77.9 ± 30.0 min, p = 0.026) and shortened rapid eye movement sleep latency (median 75 min, p = 0.018) compared with those in the prediabetes and control groups. Forty-five participants (60%) had OSA (apnea-hypopnea index ≥ 5/h), 18 of whom were in the type 2 diabetes group. The prevalence of OSA in this group was 72%. The prevalence of moderate-to-severe OSA was significantly higher in the type 2 diabetes group than in the control group (p = 0.025) and in groups with HbA1c levels of > 6.7% than in groups with HbA1c levels of < 5.3% (p = 0.007). Multiple regression analysis showed that dyslipidemia (β = 0.179, p = 0.000) and slow-wave sleep duration (β = - 0.113, p = 0.008) were independently associated with the HbA1c level.
conclusionOur results suggest that increasing slow-wave sleep is positively associated with glycemic control.
