Assessing Depression and Suicidality Among Recently Unemployed Persons with Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Socioeconomic Inequality.
Article in Southwest journal of pulmonary, critical care & sleep, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a common sleep-related breathing disorder that often is associated with several psychiatric conditions. Job loss is a stressful life event that can also affect mental health and socioeconomic status (SES). We investigated whether there was an association between the prevalence of OSA and several psychiatric conditions within a cohort of persons who recently became unemployed and whether SES was a contributing factor. Methods: Data from 292 participants who completed the screening evaluation of the Assessing Daily Activity Patterns through occupational Transitions (ADAPT) Study were used to assess the association between the prevalence of OSA, and current and past depression, and past suicidality. A type III sleep home sleep monitor was used to identify the presence of OSA and assess its severity. Depression and suicidality were ascertained using the Mini-international neuropsychiatric interview. Years of education was used as a proxy for SES. Results: There were no significant associations between severity of OSA, SES and current depression, past depression, and suicidality. Past suicidality was noted to be more common among those who were single/widowed (17.4%) or those who were divorced or separated (11.1%) (p=0.027). Current depression was more common among Hispanics in comparison to non-Hispanics. Furthermore, prevalence rates of both depression and past suicidality were higher than previous reports in general populations. Conclusions: Within a cohort of individuals who experienced recent job loss, there was no association between OSA and depression or past suicidality. Prevalence rates of both depression and past suicidality were higher than previous reports in the general population.
