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

The overlap syndrome (OVS), defined as coexisting chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), is linked to worse outcomes than either condition alone. Patients with COPD and OSA may have fewer obstructive events, but underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Using a large clinical cohort, we tested the hypothesis that OSA severity and pathophysiological traits differ in OVS versus OSA-alone. Data from the SNOOzzzE cohort (3319 adults with in-laboratory polysomnography 2017-2019) were used. OVS patients were identified through chart review and matched to OSA-only patients (3:1) by age, sex, and body mass index. OSA severity was assessed using apnea hypopnea index (AHI), hypoxic burden (HB), and T90 (%time with SpO
