Nocturnal hypoxemia in COPD: the amplifying effect of comorbid OSA and PLMS on oxygen desaturation.
Article in Therapeutic advances in respiratory disease. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and periodic limb movements of sleep (PLMS) frequently co-occur and may exacerbate nocturnal hypoxemia. Still, their combined effects are not well defined.
objectivesTo examine the independent and interactive effects of COPD, OSA, and PLMS on nocturnal oxygen desaturation.
designCross-sectional analysis of a sleep study cohort.
methodsWe analyzed 711 participants (mean age 57.2 ± 17.9 years; 44.4% male), including 48 with COPD. Time with oxygen saturation ⩽88% (ST) and mean SpO
resultsParticipants with COPD had lower mean SpO
conclusionCOPD and OSA independently worsen nocturnal hypoxemia, while the coexistence of COPD, OSA, and PLMS confers the greatest desaturation burden, underscoring the importance of evaluating overlapping conditions in clinical assessment.
