Effect of nocturia in patients with different severity of obstructive sleep apnea on polysomnography: A retrospective observational study.
Article in Asian journal of urology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objective: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the etiologies of nocturia. We analyzed polysomnography (PSG) results to determine correlated factors related to nocturia in OSA patients with different severity. Methods: Patients with suspected OSA were examined using PSG. They were divided into two groups based on the presence of nocturia. Nocturia was defined as a patient who needed to void at least once. Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) was employed to classify patients according to degrees of severity: AHI<5 events/h, 5 events/h≤AHI<15 events/h, 15 events/h≤AHI<30 events/h, and AHI≥30 events/h, defined as normal, mild OSA, moderate OSA, and severe OSA, respectively. Demographic variables, PSG parameters, International Prostate Symptom Scores (IPSSs), and quality of life scores due to urinary symptoms were analyzed. Results: In total 140 patients, 114 patients had OSA (48 had mild OSA; 34 had moderate OSA; and 32 had severe OSA) and 107 patients had nocturia. The total IPSS was significantly higher in nocturia patients in all groups except the group of severe OSA patients. With the increasing severity of OSA, more correlated factors related to nocturia were determined. In mild OSA patients, nocturia related to increased age ( Conclusion: Our study revealed that there were more correlated factors related to nocturia with increasing severity of OSA. This study helps in clinical education and treatment for OSA patients with different severity.
