Prevalence and factors associated with high risk for obstructive sleep apnea in schizophrenia spectrum disorder patients on long-term clozapine.
Article in Indian journal of psychiatry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and its correlates among schizophrenia spectrum disorder patients receiving clozapine. Methods: For this, 200 schizophrenia spectrum disorder patients receiving clozapine for at least one year were assessed on the Berlin Sleep Questionnaire for OSA. Results: Around one-sixth of the study sample (16.5%) had a high risk for OSA at a body mass index (BMI) cut-off of 30 kg/m Conclusion: To conclude, this study suggests that a high risk of OSA is associated with the presence of depression, a higher number of psychiatric comorbidities, diabetes mellitus, use of higher total chlorpromazine equivalent dose, the total number of medications, poorer quality of life, and a higher prevalence of other side effects.
