Sleep disorders after cardiac arrest: Prevalence and relation with cognitive function.

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
Background: Long term cognitive impairment affects about half of cardiac arrest survivors, typically attributed to postanoxic encephalopathy. Sleep disorders are common after acute brain injuries and may also impair cognition. We investigated the prevalence of sleep disorders in cardiac arrest survivors and their relation with cognitive function. Method: Thirty survivors completed neuropsychological examination and questionnaires on mood (Hospital anxiety and depression scale), daytime sleepiness (Epworth sleepiness scale), and sleep quality (Pittsburgh sleep quality index), and underwent polysomnography one year after cardiac arrest. Questionnaire outcomes and objective sleep parameters (sleep-apnea, leg movements, cyclicity) were correlated with performance on neuropsychological tests using Pearson R, Kruskal-Wallis, or Mann-Whitney U tests. Results: Thirty-six percent of participants had moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea, and 43% moderate to severe periodic limb movements during sleep according to polysomnography. Obstructive sleep apnea was correlated with poorer executive functioning ( Conclusion: This explorative study shows moderate to severe sleep disorders are common in cardiac arrest survivors and that moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea relates to poorer cognitive function. This implies that diagnosis and treatment of obstructive sleep apnea may offer a treatment target for cardiac arrest survivors with cognitive impairment.
