Effect of Cuff Inflation on Blood Pressure, Arousals, Sleep Efficiency, and Desaturations: Sub-Analysis of the VAST Pilot Study.

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
The influence of cuff inflations on night-time measurements during 24 h ambulatory blood pressure (BP) measurements is unknown. We investigated the potential effect of cuff inflations on sleep parameters using measurements taken simultaneously with a cuffless device using pulse-transit-time (PTT). On the first day of measurement, standard cuff-based 24 h BP and cuffless measurements were simultaneously performed on the right and left arms (CUFF/PTT-D). In this experiment, 1-2 days after the first measurement, the cuffless device was worn alone (PTT-D). Only data from the cuffless device were analyzed. The following mean sleep parameters were analyzed: mean systolic and diastolic BP, arousals, sleep efficiency, total arousals, arousal per hour, and desaturations. In total, 21 individuals were prospectively enrolled. The mean (SD) age was 47 (±15) years, and 57% were female. The mean systolic asleep BP during CUFF/PTT-D and during PTT-D were 131 (±21) and 131 (±26) mmHg, respectively. The mean diastolic asleep BP values during CUFF/PTT-D and during PTT-D were 80 (±14) and 84 (±14) mmHg, respectively (
