Beyond the Apnea-Hypopnea Index: Exploring Time-Dependent Hazard Ratios of Respiratory Events in Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
Observational study in Advances in respiratory medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 apnea (OSA) is associated with increased risks of systemic comorbidities, leading to significant morbidity and mortality. This study investigates predictors of all-cause mortality, emphasizing the interplay of clinical symptoms, polysomnographic findings, and comorbidities. The aim of this study was to identify and compare respiratory predictors of all-cause mortality over 5, 10, and 15 years. A single-center study was conducted at a Sleep Medicine Department between 2005 and 2019, 4025 patients with suspected OSA who underwent polysomnography were admitted, 853 died during the study. We performed Cox regression analyses with dynamic hazard ratios to evaluated predictors of mortality. Prevalence of OSA was high-75.6% in the cohort: 929 patients with mild OSA (23.1%), 770 with moderate OSA (19.1%), and 1343 with severe OSA (33.4%). Survival rates were 89.7%, 81.9%, and 78.8% at 5, 10, and 15 years, respectively. Cardiovascular causes dominated mortality (33.3%), followed by cancer (26.5%). AHI
