Mechanical Interactions Between the Upper Airway and the Lungs that Affect the Propensity to Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Health and Chronic Lung Disease.
Review in Sleep medicine clinics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder characterized by repetitive narrowing and collapse of the upper airways during sleep. It is caused by multiple anatomic and nonanatomic factors but end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) is an important factor as increased EELV can stabilize the upper airway via caudal traction forces. EELV is impacted by changes in sleep stages, body position, weight, and chronic lung diseases, and this article reviews the mechanical interactions between the lungs and upper airway that affect the propensity to OSA. In doing so, it highlights the need for additional research in this area.
