Longer respiratory events in childhood obstructive sleep apnea syndrome constitute a trait of older children with excessive daytime sleepiness.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. 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
The objective was to evaluate the determinants of desaturation during apnea and apnea-hypopnea duration's links with the endotypes (pharyngeal compliance, loop gain) of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and with heart rate variability (HRV) indices. We retrospectively selected 35 otherwise healthy children (median age: 10.6 years, 16 females) with moderate to severe OSA who had measurements of pharyngeal compliance (acoustic pharyngometry), loop gain (awake tidal ventilation with calculation of controller and plant gains), and respiratory system impedance (impulse oscillometry system). HRV indices were obtained from the whole-night ECG of polysomnography. The slope of desaturation (0.64%.s
