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

A 47-year-old male patient diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) sought alternatives to positive airway pressure, prompting evaluation with drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE). He underwent a specialized DISE with nasal airflow and pharyngeal pressure monitoring. During obstructive apneas, airflow and pressure signals demonstrated dynamic, multilevel upper airway collapse, with shifting sites of airflow obstruction as respiratory effort increased. This case report illustrates how quantitative airflow and pressure measurements can complement the standard DISE exam and aid in surgical decision-making. Laryngoscope, 134:4418-4420, 2024.
