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

We must remember that there are many subclinical cases of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), even if the patient or family members typically become aware of it through symptoms such as snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). EDS is a common symptom among hypertensive patients. This interesting and remarkable systematic review aims to comprehensively survey the current literature on the prevalence and association of EDS among hypertensive patients. PubMed, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and Science Direct were systematically searched for relevant literature. Rayyan QRCI (Rayyan Systems Inc., Cambridge, MA) was employed throughout this comprehensive process. This review included nine studies with a total of 58,517 patients, and 34,398 (58.8%) were males. EDS prevalence among hypertensive patients ranged from 12.1% to 88.3%. This review stated that individuals with hypertension (HTN) had EDS that was worse than that of patients with normotension. In one of the studies included in this analysis, sympathovagal imbalance was noted alongside EDS and HTN. Older age, primary education, being overweight, working, obesity, depression, and having had the condition for longer are all associated with EDS in HTN patients.
