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

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been associated with cognitive decline via several mechanisms, including intermittent hypoxemia, sleep fragmentation, and neuroinflammation. The neurological consequences of OSA have evolved into a major biopsychosocial concern in the elderly, especially memory impairment. We aimed to identify the polysomnographic (PSG) parameters capable of predicting memory impairment among OSA patients at or over age 50 with OSA. We reviewed the 10-year electronic medical records of OSA patients and compared the initial PSG parameters between those presenting and not presenting self-reported memory impairment. We conducted subgroup analyses based on OSA severity and performed multivariate analysis to correlate PSG parameters with memory impairment. The result showed that 25 out of the 156 (16%) investigated patients experienced self-reported memory impairment during follow-up. As compared to OSA patients without self-reported memory impairment, those reported with self-reported memory impairment had a higher oxygen desaturation index (ODI) (23.9 ± 17.8 versus 18.2 ± 12.0,
