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

backgroundObstructive sleep apnea hypoventilation syndrome (OSAHS) in children is a sleep respiratory disorder characterized by a series of pathophysiologic changes. Statistics in recent years have demonstrated an increasing yearly incidence.

aimTo investigate the risk factors for OSAHS in children and propose appropriate management measures.

methodsThis study had a case-control study design. Altogether, 85 children with OSAHS comprised the case group, and healthy children of the same age and sex were matched at 1:1 as the control group. Basic information, including age, sex, height, weight and family history, and medical history data of all study participants were collected. Polysomnography was used to detect at least 8 h of nocturnal sleep. All participants were clinically examined for the presence of adenoids, enlarged tonsils, sinusitis, and rhinitis.

resultsThe analysis of variance revealed that the case group had a higher proportion of factors such as adenoid grading, tonsil indexing, sinusitis, and rhinitis than the control group.

conclusionA regression model was established, and glandular pattern grading, tonsil indexing, sinusitis, and pharyngitis were identified as independent risk factors affecting OSAHS development.
