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

Purpose: Microorganisms contribute to the pathogenesis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)-associated hypertension (HTN), while more studies focus on intestinal microbiome. However, the relationship between oral microbiota and OSA-associated HTN has yet to be elucidated. This study aimed to identify differences in salivary microbiota between patients with OSA comorbid HTN compared with OSA patients, and furthermore evaluate the relationship between oral microbiome changes and increased blood pressure in patients with OSA. Patients and Methods: This study collected salivary samples from 103 participants, including 27 healthy controls, 27 patients with OSA, 23 patients with HTN, and 26 patients with OSA comorbid HTN, to explore alterations of the oral microbiome using 16S rRNA gene V3-V4 high-throughput sequencing. And ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography was used for metabolomic analysis. Results: Alpha- and beta-diversity analyses revealed a substantial difference in community structure and diversity in patients with OSA comorbid HTN compared with patients with OSA or HTN. The relative abundance of the genus Conclusion: This study highlighted noninvasive biomarkers for patients with OSA comorbid HTN. As the first study to find alterations of the salivary microbiome in patients with OSA comorbid HTN, it may provide a theoretical foundation for clinical diagnosis and treatment of this condition.
