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

purposeTo investigate the prevalence of treatment-emergent central sleep apnea (TECSA) in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) during continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) titration and assess their polysomnographic characteristics.

methodsA total of 116 patients with OSAS who underwent full-night CPAP titration at the Sleep Laboratory of Adana City Research and Education Hospital from September 2017 to January 2018 were recruited for the study. The patients' polysomnographic data related to respiratory events and sleep stages were reviewed in a retrospective manner.

resultsWhile on CPAP titration, 20 of the 116 patients developed central sleep apnea (CSA). The prevalence of TECSA in the patients with OSAS was 17.2%, being separately determined as 16.3% and 2.2% for the male and female patients, respectively. In the baseline PSG, the groups did not statistically significantly differ in relation to the apnea hypopnea index (AHI), central apnea index (CAI), arousal index (AI), or oxygen desaturation index (ODI). However, the TECSA group had a significantly higher mean oxygen saturation value compared to the non-TECSA group (p = 0.01). The total AHI, CAI, and AI values of the TECSA group were significantly higher during the whole CPAP titration compared to the non-TECSA group. No significant difference was observed in the comparison of the two groups in relation to the titration pressure and ODI.

conclusionTECSA is a phenomenon that can occur with obstructive sleep apnea treatment and mostly regress spontaneously following appropriate CPAP treatment. TECSA is observed at different rates of prevalence. In this study, the prevalence of TECSA was higher than previously reported.
