Obstructive sleep apnea and temporal changes in cardiac repolarization in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.
Article in Journal of clinical sleep medicine : JCSM : official publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02701504 (Association Between Sleep Apnea and Occurrence of Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
STUDY
objectivesIn coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), abnormal cardiac repolarization is associated with adverse cardiovascular events that can be measured via the QTc interval. We investigated the impact of obstructive sleep apnea on the change in repolarization after CABG and the association of change in repolarization with the occurrence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events.
methodsA total of 1,007 patients from 4 hospitals underwent an overnight sleep study prior to a nonemergent CABG. Electrocardiograms of 954 patients (median age: 62 years; male: 86%; mean follow-up: 2.1 years) were acquired prospectively within 48 hours before CABG (T1) and within 24 hours after CABG (T2). QTc intervals were measured using the BRAVO algorithm by Analyzing Medical Parameters for Solutions LLC. The change in T2 from T1 for QTc (ΔQTc) was derived, and Cox regression was performed.
resultsCompared with those without, patients who developed major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (n = 115) were older and had (1) a higher prevalence of smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and chronic kidney disease; (2) a higher apnea-hypopnea index and oxygen desaturation index; and (3) a smaller ΔQTc. Cox regression analysis demonstrated a smaller ΔQTc to be an independent risk factor for major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (hazard ratio: 0.997;
conclusionsA higher preoperative oxygen desaturation index was an independent predictor of a smaller ΔQTc. ΔQTc within 24 hours after CABG could be a novel predictor of occurrence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events at medium-term follow-up. CLINICAL
