Renin-angiotensin system activation: may it increase frequency of obstructive sleep apnea in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease?
Article 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
purposeRenin-angiotensin system (RAS) hyperactivity is a common entity in both autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We aimed to investigate the frequency of OSA in adults with ADPKD either with stages 3-4 or stages 1-2 chronic kidney disease (CKD) and evaluate the effect of RAS blockade on OSA in these patients.
methodsThis is a comparative, prospective, two-center clinical study. Eligible patients with ADPKD were enrolled in a polysomnography (PSG) study. Presence of OSA in patients with ADPKD was compared with individuals who underwent polisomnography study due to OSA symptoms. A subgroup analysis was performed in terms of the presence of OSA in ADPKD with eGFR values lower or higher than 60 ml/min/1.73 m
resultsFrequency of OSA (65%) was higher than in the general population and similar between the two groups (p = 0.367). Patients with ADPKD and eGFR ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73 m
conclusionAs kidney disease progresses, uremia and related factors of renal failure rather than RAS activation seem to play a more important role for the development of OSA in patients with ADPKD.
