Effects of continuous positive airway pressure therapy on left ventricular performance in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
We investigated myocardial performance concerning obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity and the benefits of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. In this randomized sham-controlled trial, 52 patients (mean age, 49 years; 92%, males; mean AHI, 59) with severe OSA were randomly assigned to receive either CPAP or sham treatment for 3 months. The severity of OSA was determined using the apnea/hypopnea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), percentage of sleep time below 90% oxygen saturation (T90), and average O
