Micrognathia and cleft palate as a cause of obstructive sleep apnoea in infants.
Article in Acta paediatrica (Oslo, Norway : 1992), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
aimObstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is common in Robin sequence (RS). We investigated the significance of micrognathia, cleft palate and sleep positioning on OSA in infants.
methodsWe analysed our 13-year national reference centre polysomnography (PSG) dataset. PSG was performed as daytime recordings (97%) in the supine-, side- and prone sleeping position at the median age of 5 weeks (interquartile range 3-8 weeks).
resultsOur study included 113 infants with RS and cleft palate, 10 infants with RS but intact palate and 32 infants with cleft palate without micrognathia. The degree of OSA in infants with cleft palate without micrognathia was less severe than in infants with RS in terms of obstructive events (median OAHI 4 vs. 32 h
conclusionsThe degree of OSA in RS infants is more dependent on micrognathia than on cleft palate.
