1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

STUDY

objectivesWe explored whether declarative memory consolidation is impaired in children with rapid eye movement sleep-related obstructive sleep apnea (REM-OSA) and investigated the correlation between memory consolidation and sleep-related respiratory parameters.

methodsParticipants were children with habitual snoring aged 6-14 years and control children. Participants underwent polysomnography and declarative memory testing. Participants with snoring were categorized as primary snoring (PS), non-rapid eye movement sleep-related obstructive sleep apnea (NREM-OSA), stage-independent (SI)-OSA, and REM-OSA according to obstructive apnea-hypopnea index (OAHI), OAHI in REM sleep (OAHI

resultsThere were 34 controls and 228 children with sleep-disordered breathing: 73 PS, 48 NREM-OSA, 59 SI-OSA, and 48 REM-OSA. Total arousal index was lower in the REM-OSA group than in the NREM-OSA group. In all groups, retest scores were higher than immediate test scores. Recall consolidation in PS, SI-OSA, and REM-OSA groups was lower than for controls and lower in REM-OSA than in NREM-OSA. There were no correlations between recall consolidation or recognition consolidation and OAHI, OAHI

conclusionsMemory consolidation is impaired in children with REM-OSA compared with NREM-OSA and controls. There was no significant correlation between memory consolidation and OAHI, and recognition consolidation was negatively correlated with OAHI CITATION: Tang Y, Yang C, Wang C, Wu Y, Xu Z, Ni X.
