Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Pregnancy: A Narrative Review.
Review in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep-related breathing disorder that remains underdiagnosed in pregnancy and can cause severe maternal and fetal complications. The prevalence of OSA in pregnancy had a wide variation and increases with increasing gestation. At-risk women are those with increased body mass index (BMI), increasing age, and chronic hypertension. Screening can be done by polysomnography but as it is expensive and necessitate overnight hospital stay, makes it even harder to diagnose and leads to delay in treatment. Once diagnosed, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the gold standard treatment. Early diagnosis and effective treatment can considerably improve the outcome. This review aims to discuss the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of OSA in pregnancy.
