A longitudinal study of the accuracy of positive airway pressure therapy machine-detected apnea-hypopnea events.
Article in Journal of clinical sleep medicine : JCSM : official publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
STUDY
objectivesDuring positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy for sleep apnea syndromes, the machine-detected respiratory event index (REI
methodsPatients with obstructive sleep apnea who underwent a split-night polysomnography were recruited prospectively. Those treated with PAP and tracked by the EncoreAnywhere system (Philips Respironics, Murrysville, PA) were analyzed. Those who stopped PAP within 1 month were excluded from this analysis. Compliance, therapy data, and waveform data were analyzed. Machine-detected vs manually scored events were compared at the first, third, sixth, and 12th month from PAP initiation. Logistic regression was used to determine factors associated with a high REI
resultsOne hundred and seventy-nine patients with a mean age 59.06 ± 13.97 years, median body mass index of 33.60 (29.75-38.75) kg/m
conclusionsThere is a substantial and sustained difference between manual and automated event estimates during PAP therapy, and some associated factors were identified. CITATION: Ni Y-N, Thomas RJ.
