Drug-induced sleep endoscopy-continuous positive airway pressure (DISE-CPAP), a newer modality to choose the right candidates for CPAP.
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 3 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
backgroundContinuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is recommended for moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We aimed to investigate whether or not combining drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) with CPAP titration may inform more appropriate pressure settings. MATERIALS AND
methodsA sleep CPAP titration study and DISE-CPAP treatment were performed on consecutive subjects with moderate-to-severe OSA under controlled sedation using bispectral monitoring. Video recordings of dynamic changes in UA with CPAP pressure ranges of 5 to 25 cm were assessed in accordance with the VOTE classification. The 95th percentile (95th PC) pressure of the CPAP titration trial was compared to optimal pressure for alleviating UA blockage.
resultsWe included 30 subjects (mean age 37.5, 17% women). All showed UA collapse at more than one level, with more than 80% of them collapsing completely at the levels of the velum and oropharynx. At the velum, 90% of subjects experienced improvement with CPAP. At the oropharynx, 75% of subjects experienced improvement with CPAP. The mean pressure and standard deviation (SD) of the 95th PC of the CPAP titration was 14.3 (3.5) cmH
conclusionsThe palate and lateral pharynx were more affected by CPAP than the hypopharynx. Most of the time, the mean 95th PC CPAP titration pressure was lower than the mean optimal pressure needed to alleviate the collapse.
