Outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with OSA-COPD overlap syndrome versus COPD alone: an analysis of US Nationwide Inpatient Sample.
Article in BMC pulmonary medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are associated with unfavorable outcomes following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The purpose of this study was to compare in-hospital outcomes of patients with COPD alone versus OSA-COPD overlap after CABG.
methodsData of adults ≥ 18 years old with COPD who received elective CABG between 2005 and 2018 were extracted from the US Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS). Patients were divided into two groups: with OSA-COPD overlap and COPD alone. Propensity score matching (PSM) was employed to balance the between-group characteristics. Logistic and linear regression analyses determined the associations between study variables and inpatient outcomes.
resultsAfter PSM, data of 2,439 patients with OSA-COPD overlap and 9,756 with COPD alone were analyzed. After adjustment, OSA-COPD overlap was associated with a significantly increased risk of overall postoperative complications (adjusted odd ratio [aOR] = 1.12, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 95% CI: 1.01-1.24), respiratory failure/prolonged mechanical ventilation (aOR = 1.27, 95%CI: 1.14-1.41), and non-routine discharge (aOR = 1.16, 95%CI: 1.03-1.29), and AKI (aOR = 1.14, 95% CI: 1.00-1.29). Patients with OSA-COPD overlap had a lower risk of in-hospital mortality (adjusted odd ratio [aOR] = 0.53, 95% CI: 0.35-0.81) than those with COPD only. Pneumonia or postoperative atrial fibrillation (AF) risks were not significantly different between the 2 groups. Stratified analyses revealed that, compared to COPD alone, OSA-COPD overlap was associated with increased respiratory failure/prolonged mechanical ventilation risks among patients ≥ 60 years, and both obese and non-obese subgroups. In addition, OSA-COPD overlap was associated with increased risk of AKI among the older and obese subgroups.
conclusionIn US adults who undergo CABG, compared to COPD alone, those with OSA-COPD are at higher risks of non-routine discharge, AKI, and respiratory failure/prolonged mechanical ventilation, but a lower in-hospital mortality. No increased risk of AF was noted.
