Wake EEG and Sleep Hypoxemia Predicts Poor Driving and Vigilance Following Extended Wakefulness in People With OSA.

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
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a highly prevalent but heterogeneous condition which makes identifying patients at risk of vigilance and driving impairment clinically challenging. Resting wake electroencephalography (EEG) is associated with vigilance performance in healthy participants. We examined if rested wake EEG predicted vigilance and driving impairment in OSA following extended wakefulness. Fifty-four patients underwent baseline polysomnography and 28-h extended wakefulness, repeated vigilance assessments (psychomotor vigilance task (PVT), driving simulator) and resting wake EEG (Karolinska drowsiness test). Cluster analysis assigned patients into groups of either resistant (n = 38) or vulnerable (n = 16) to vigilance failure based on PVT and driving performance following extended wakefulness. Backward stepwise regression models and receiver operator characteristics curves were used to determine the strongest clinical and wake EEG predictors of vigilance impairment. The vulnerable OSA group showed impaired PVT and driving performance relative to the resistant group (p < 0.01). Compared with resistant patients, the vulnerable group exhibited increased delta (p < 0.001) and theta (p = 0.003) EEG power across extended wake. Significant predictors of vigilance impairment were (1) baseline wake EEG theta and O
