Electronic health record-derived outcomes in obstructive sleep apnea managed with positive airway pressure tracking systems.

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
STUDY
objectivesTo assess the effectiveness of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) management guided by CPAP machine downloads in newly diagnosed patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) using electronic health record-derived health care utilization, biometric variables, and laboratory data.
methodsElectronic health record data of patients seen at the University of Utah Sleep Program from 2012-2015 were reviewed to identify patients with new diagnosis of OSA in whom CPAP adherence and residual apnea-hypopnea index as measured by a positive airway pressure adherence tracking device data for ≥ 1 year were available. Biometric data, laboratory data, and system-wide charges were compared in the 1 year before and after CPAP therapy. Subgroups were divided by whether patients met tracking criteria, mean nightly usage, and OSA severity.
results976 consecutive, newly diagnosed participants with OSA (median age 55 years, 56.6% male) met inclusion criteria. There was a mean decrease of systolic blood pressure (BP) of 1.2 mm Hg and diastolic BP of 1.0 mm Hg within a year of initiation of CPAP therapy. BP improvements in the subgroup meeting CPAP tracking targets were 1.36 mmHg (systolic) and 1.37 mmHg (diastolic). No significant change was noted in body mass index, glycated hemoglobin, or serum creatinine values within a year of starting CPAP therapy, and health care utilization increased (mean acute care visits 0.22 per year to 0.53 per year; mean charges of $3,997 per year to $8,986 per year).
conclusionsAn improvement in BP was noted within a year of CPAP therapy in newly diagnosed patients with OSA, with no difference in the magnitude of improvement between those meeting tracking system adherence targets.
