Case report: An OSAS patient with comorbid RLS/PLMS - a closer look at the causes of PAP intolerance.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Since 2017, hypoglossal nerve stimulation has been included in the S3-guidelines on restorative sleep/sleep disorders as an alternative treatment for patients with obstructive sleep related breathing disorders who cannot tolerate conventional PAP-therapy. Under certain conditions, some of these patients have the option to have a tongue pacemaker implanted during a surgical procedure to regain a restful night's sleep. However, in some cases it does not solve the problem. In this case report, we present a patient who continued to have restless sleep despite implantation of a hypoglossus nerve stimulator. We provide a closer look at the underlying causes of PAP intolerance and emphasize the importance of a combined pneumological and neurological approach to sleep medicine in sleep-specific therapy evaluation.
