Association between pollinosis and obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome in the US population: evidence from the NHANES database 2005-2018.
Article in BMC pulmonary medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundRhinobyon and inflammation associated with pollinosis may elevate the risk of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). However, the exact nature of this association remains unclear, particularly in large-scale populations. This study aimed to examine the relationship between pollinosis and OSAHS using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).
methodsData from the NHANES spanning 2005 to 2018 were analyzed. Three multivariate generalized linear models (GLMs) were employed to explore the relationship between pollinosis and OSAHS: one unadjusted model, one minimally adjusted model, and one fully adjusted model. Stratified analyses were conducted to assess the impact of pollinosis and other covariates on OSAHS. Additionally, the study incorporated K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and smoothed curves to refine the analysis.
resultsThe study identified significant demographic differences between groups in factors such as pollinosis, age, gender, weight (WT), body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), protein, and fat. In three adjusted models, a consistent association was observed between pollinosis and OSAHS. Specifically, Model 1 showed an odds ratio (OR) of 1.31 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.16-1.48, P < 0.001], Model 2 revealed an OR of 1.35 (95% CI: 1.19-1.54, P < 0.001), and Model 3 indicated an OR of 1.29 (95% CI: 1.10-1.50, P = 0.002), suggesting that the relationship between pollinosis and OSAHS remained robust despite the inclusion of other covariates. Risk stratification confirmed that pollinosis was a risk factor for OSAHS (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.10-1.50, P = 0.002). The KNN model further supported the utility of pollinosis as a diagnostic marker for OSAHS. Smoothing curves also demonstrated a positive correlation between pollinosis prevalence and OSAHS incidence.
conclusionThis study established pollinosis as a risk factor for OSAHS, emphasizing the need for vigilance in monitoring and managing OSAHS in individuals with pollinosis risk.
