Independent association between hypoxemia and night sweats in obstructive sleep apnea.
Observational study in Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo assess the relationship between hypoxemia during polysomnography (PSG) and patient-reported night sweats (NS).
methodsThis retrospective observational study included adult patients who completed a standardized sleep questionnaire and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) before PSG.
resultsWe included 1397 patients (41% women). The median age was 52 years, 80% had obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) defined as an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 5, and 35% were obese. A total of 245 patients (17.5%) reported NS. Their prevalence was higher among patients with OSA compared to controls (18.9% vs. 12.2%, p < 0.01). In the bivariate analysis, the variables associated with NS were BMI, AHI, hypoxemia (T90 ≥ 2.5% of total recording time plus minimum SO
conclusionsIn patients with OSA, night sweats were significantly and independently associated with a higher hypoxic burden.
