Effect of particulate matter on continuous positive airway pressure adherence in obstructive sleep apnea patients.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Sleep quality could be affected by air pollution, especially for particulate matter with a diameter of less than 10 microns (PM Methods: We conducted a time-series study from August 2016 to May 2022 in Chiang Mai, Thailand. The data from 2,686 visits of CPAP compliance records from 839 OSA patients' electronic medical records at the Sleep Disorders Center, Center of Medical Excellence, Chiang Mai University, Chiang Mai, Thailand were reviewed. The level of adherence was determined utilizing the provided data. Low CPAP adherence was defined as using CPAP for less than 240 minutes per night or less than 70% of nights (i.e., <5 nights/week) in the previous month. The correlation between the monthly average of PM Results: There was no effect of an increase in PM Conclusions: There was no effect of particulate matter on CPAP adherence in OSA patients.
