Association between Berlin Questionnaire Index and lipid profile.

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
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the association between the Berlin questionnaire index and the lipid profile, according to gender.
methodThis is a cross-sectional study. The group investigated was composed of the Bahiana School of Medicine and Public Health (EBMSP) employees by a sequential non-probabilistic sampling. Study design: The data were obtained by applying a validated questionnaire and collecting laboratory blood samples at the Outpatient Clinics of EBMSP.
resultsThe total sample consisted of 94 employees, 21 of whom were excluded because they had not been submitted to blood collection. The sample profile evaluation had a total of 73 employees and obtained the following results in the study: the female was the most prevalent with (54.8%); the age ranged from 18 to 65 years, with a mean 38 ± 10.6 years; in men with positive Berlin (with respiratory sleep disorder), higher values of total cholesterol and LDL-c, and lower HDL-c were observed when compared to men without respiratory sleep disorder, as follows: total cholesterol (202 ± 19 vs. 180±40; p=0.040); LDL-c (137± 17 vs. 113 ± 34; p=0.048); lower HDL-c (37 ± 6 vs. 42,5 ±8; p=0.047). While in women, no significant change was observed among those with positive Berlin when compared with those with negative Berlin.
conclusionThe findings of this study showed that men with positive Berlin (with a respiratory sleep disorder) had higher values of total cholesterol, LDL-c, and lower HDL-c when compared to men without a respiratory sleep disorder.
