Hypoxaemic burden in heart failure patients receiving adaptive servo-ventilation.
Trial report in ESC heart failure, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
aimsThis study aimed to assess the effectiveness of adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) for lowering hypoxaemic burden components in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients. METHODS AND
resultsFifty-six stable HFrEF patients with left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 40 were randomized to receive either ASV (n = 27; 25 males) or optimal medical management or optimal medical management alone (n = 29; 26 males). Patients underwent overnight polysomnography at baseline and a 12 week follow-up visit. We quantified hypoxaemic as time spent at <90% oxygen saturation (T90) decomposed into desaturation-related components (T90
conclusionsASV effectively suppresses the sleep apnoea-related component of hypoxaemic burden in HFrEF patients. A significant hypoxaemic burden not directly attributable to sleep apnoea but related to the severity of heart failure remains and may adversely affect cardiovascular long-term outcomes.
