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

objectiveHigh triglyceride (TG) levels are important risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Some recent studies have shown that snoring is also closely related to elevated TG levels. The specific pathogenesis of elevated TG levels in snoring patients is still unclear. Therefore, we performed this meta-analysis to evaluate the relationship between snoring and elevated TG levels. MATERIALS AND

methodsA systematic search was conducted in four online electronic databases as of Jul 1, 2024. The standardized mean difference (SMD) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) for TG levels in each study were pooled. Moreover, we performed subgroup analysis according to snoring status and body mass index (BMI). All the data were pooled and analysed with Review Manager 5.3.

resultsThe meta-analysis included five studies with 39,102 participants. Our results revealed that snoring was associated with elevated TG levels, with a pooled SMD of 0.23 (95% CI 0.14 to0.32; P < 0.00001). We found that occasional snoring and habitual snoring were associated with high TG levels, with pooled SMD of 0.26 (95% CI 0.04to0.49; P = 0.002) and 0.29 (95% CI 0.16to0.43; P < 0.0001), respectively. According to the subgroup analysis of BMI, BMI < 25 kg/m

conclusionsOur meta-analysis revealed that both occasional and habitual snoring were associated with elevated TG levels. More importantly, our findings also revealed that the relationship between snoring-induced elevated TG levels and BMI was fragile.
