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

objectivesObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) negatively impacts health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) in adults, but few pediatric studies have explored this relationship or the relationships between HR-QoL domains.

methodsPatients aged 8-17 years visiting the sleep laboratory from July 2019 to January 2020 for overnight polysomnography participated in the study. Controls seen for problems other than sleep disturbance were recruited from Department of Pediatrics outpatient clinics. HR-QoL was assessed by Patient-Reported Outcome Measure Information System (PROMIS) profile questionnaires, version 2.0. Statistical analysis was conducted using R 3.6.0 (R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria).

resultsOne hundred twenty-two patients were included in the final analysis. Sixty-four patients were males (52.4%). Twenty-nine (23.8%) had mild OSA, 8 (6.6%) had moderate OSA, 17 (13.9%) had severe OSA, 46 (37.7%) were without OSA, and 22 (18.0%) were controls. Patients referred for polysomnography had lower physical function mobility compared with controls (

conclusionsOSA and total sleep time were associated with problems with physical function mobility after adjusting for age, sex, and number of arousals. CITATION: Xu S, Turakhia S, Miller M, et al.
