Polysomnography in infants with clinical suspicion of sleep-related breathing disorders.
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 6 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
STUDY
objectivesLimited data exist concerning the indications, parameters, utility of daytime polysomnography, and treatment of infants with suspected sleep-related breathing disorders.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed all polysomnography undertaken in a quaternary pediatric hospital for term infants up to 6 months of age between January 2017 and December 2019. Outcomes were evaluated, including a comparison among diagnostic groups.
resultsOf 161 infants (58% male), 77 (48%) were ≤ 2 months old, and 103 (61%) were referred for either craniofacial abnormalities or an airway malformation. Daytime (n = 100) vs nighttime (n = 61) studies showed no differences in sleep architecture or treatment rates. Apnea-hypopnea index was > 10 events/h in 137 (85%) and was similar across different diagnostic groups, and 97 (78%) were prescribed noninvasive ventilation, with a mean treatment duration of 13.4 ± 9 months. Of the infants who were commenced on noninvasive ventilation 75% did not require it beyond 24 months.
conclusionsPolysomnographic sleep parameters and the number of treatments prescribed were equivalent whether the polysomnography was performed during daytime or nighttime. Treatment with noninvasive ventilation was required in the short term for most infants with sleep-related breathing disorders, regardless of the indication for referral.
