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

purposeTo investigate the cross-sectional associations of daytime sleepiness with coronary plaque volume and composition in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and whether or not these associations are modified by age, gender, and obesity.

methodsPatients who were confirmed with OSA through respiratory polygraphy and also underwent coronary CTA at a tertiary hospital were consecutively enrolled. The interval between the sleep monitoring and coronary CTA scan was  < 3 months. Every patient completed the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) to assess daytime sleepiness, and an ESS score of ≥ 11 was recognized as excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). Coronary plaque volume and composition were measured using semi-automatic software.

resultsOf the 394 patients with OSA (median [IQR] age, 56.0 [49.0-64.0] years; median [IQR] body mass index, 27.9 [25.5-30.2] kg/m

conclusionDaytime sleepiness is significantly correlated with increased coronary plaque burden among patients with OSA. Thus, clinicians should recognize that patients with OSA reporting high ESS scores, especially those with obesity, are more prone to experience adverse coronary events.
