Cross-Sectional Relationship Between Atrial Conduction Delay and Arterial Stiffness in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
Article in Vascular health and risk management, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Aim: Prolonged P-wave duration (PWD), which indicates atrial conduction delay, is a potent precursor of atrial fibrillation (AF) that may be induced by obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI), which is an arterial stiffness parameter, is elevated in patients with OSA; moreover, an increased CAVI is associated with atrial conduction delay through left atrium enlargement in association with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. We aimed to examine the relationship between the CAVI and PWD in patients with OSA. Methods: We included patients with a sinus rhythm who underwent overnight polysomnography. We measured the PWD and CAVI on standard 12-lead electrocardiograms; further, we analyzed the relationship between PWD and CAVI. Results: We analyzed data from 300 participants (men, 89.0%; mean age, 52.3 ± 13.1 years; and body mass index, 26.2 ± 3.9 kg/m Conclusion: In patients with OSA, an increase in arterial stiffness is associated with atrial conduction delay.
