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

Cognitive impairment (CI) is a significant and extraordinary complication of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients. Programmed cell death (PCD) is an active and ordered process regulated by genes. A growing number of studies find that PCD is responsible for cognitive dysfunction and plays an important role in various neurological diseases, which involve apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and cell death associated with autophagy. However, the influence of PCD on OSA-CI remains unclear. We summarized the relevant studies that discussed the involvement of PCD in the CI of OSA and aimed to clarify the underlying mechanisms. Intermittent hypoxia (IH)-induced PCD had a critical effect on the mechanisms that produced the ultimate neurological deficit in OSA, and the PCD involved mainly included apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis. IH regulates PCD directly or through specific pathways, and drugs targeting related molecules have the potential to improve cognitive function. These findings enrich the pathogenesis of OSA-CI and provide new therapeutic insights.
