Association between Previous CPAP and Comorbidities at Diagnosis of Obesity-Hypoventilation Syndrome Associated with Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A Comparative Retrospective Observational Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Obesity-hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) is associated with many comorbidities. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between previous continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and the prevalence of comorbidities in OHS associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We performed a retrospective, single-center study at the University Hospital of Martinique, the referral hospital for the island of Martinique. A total of 97 patients with OHS associated with severe OSA on non-invasive ventilation (NIV) were included; 54 patients (56%) had previous treatment of OSA with a positive airway pressure (PAP) device before shifting to NIV (PAP group) and 43 (44%) had no previous treatment of OSA with a PAP device before initiating NIV PAP (no PAP group). Sociodemographic characteristics were similar between groups; there were 40 women (74%) in the PAP group versus 34 (79%) in the no PAP group, mean age at OHS diagnosis was 66 ± 15 versus 67 ± 16 years, respectively, and the mean age at inclusion 72 ± 14 versus 71 ± 15 years, respectively. The average number of comorbidities was 4 ± 1 in the PAP group versus 4 ± 2 in the no PAP group; the mean Charlson index was 5 ± 2 in both groups. The mean BMI was 42 ± 8 kg/m
