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

To assess effectiveness of titratable Oral Appliance (OA) in management of moderate to severe cases of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Thirty Polysomnography (PSG) diagnosed cases of moderate to severe OSA were subjected to a thorough cranio-facial-dental evaluation, a detailed sleep history and three dimensional assessment of upper airway geometry utilising Acoustic Pharyngometry (AP) (Eccovision, sleep group solutions). A titratable OA was delivered to all patients for mandibular advancement. Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI), Oxygen Saturation (SPO
