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 prevalence of obesity and OSA are increasing world-wide. Concomitantly, the number of surgical procedures being performed in an outpatient setting is increasing. Both the American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) and the Society of Anesthesia and Sleep Medicine (SASM) have published guidelines for the perioperative care of the OSA patient. These guidelines were published in 2014 and 2016, respectively. While they serve as an excellent resource for the perioperative management of the OSA patient, the increasing number of obese, OSA patients having procedures performed in the ambulatory setting call into question the feasibility of some of these recommendations in 2024. This review highlights the current recommendations as well as the challenges in caring for the OSA patient in the perioperative setting.
