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

objectiveDrug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) is a commonly used diagnostic tool for surgical procedural selection in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but it is expensive, subjective, and requires sedation. Here we present an initial investigation of high-resolution pharyngeal manometry (HRM) for upper airway phenotyping in OSA, developing a software system that reliably predicts pharyngeal sites of collapse based solely on manometric recordings. STUDY

designProspective cross-sectional study.

settingAn academic sleep medicine and surgery practice.

methodsForty participants underwent simultaneous HRM and DISE. A machine learning algorithm was constructed to estimate pharyngeal level-specific severity of collapse, as determined by an expert DISE reviewer. The primary outcome metrics for each level were model accuracy and F1-score, which balances model precision against recall.

resultsDuring model training, the average F1-score across all categories was 0.86, with an average weighted accuracy of 0.91. Using a holdout test set of 9 participants, a K-nearest neighbor model trained on 31 participants attained an average F1-score of 0.96 and an average accuracy of 0.97. The F1-score for prediction of complete concentric palatal collapse was 0.86.

conclusionOur findings suggest that HRM may enable objective and dynamic mapping of the pharynx, opening new pathways toward reliable and reproducible assessment of this complex anatomy in sleep.
