Sleep-Disordered Breathing and Prognosis after Ischemic Stroke: It Is Not Apnea-Hypopnea Index That Matters.

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
backgroundSleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent after stroke and is considered to be a risk factor for poor post-stroke outcomes. The aim of this observational study was to evaluate the effect of nocturnal respiratory-related indices based on nocturnal respiratory polygraphy on clinical outcomes (including mortality and non-fatal events) in patients with ischemic stroke.
methodsA total of 328 consecutive patients (181 (55%) males, mean age 65.8 ± 11.2 years old) with confirmed ischemic stroke admitted to a stroke unit within 24 h after stroke onset were included in the analysis. All patients underwent standard diagnostic and treatment procedures, and sleep polygraphy was performed within the clinical routine in the first 72 h after admission. The long-term outcomes were assessed by cumulative endpoint (death of any cause, new non-fatal myocardial infarction, new non-fatal stroke/transient ischemic attack, emergency revascularization, emergency hospitalization due to the worsening of cardiovascular disease). A Cox-regression analysis was applied to evaluate the effects of nocturnal respiratory indices on survival.
resultsThe mean follow-up period comprised 12 months (maximal-48 months). Patients with unfavourable outcomes demonstrated a higher obstructive apnea-hypopnea index, a higher hypoxemia burden assessed as a percent of the time with SpO
conclusionOur study demonstrates that the indices of hypoxemia burden have additional independent predictive value for long-term outcomes (mortality and non-fatal cardiovascular events) after ischemic stroke.
