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

Integrated alongside home-based passive sleep monitoring, high-frequency assessment of patient reported outcomes (PROs) could enhance both research and clinical care surrounding obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, traditional approaches to capturing OSA-related PROs are poorly suited for this purpose. Hence, we investigated the feasibility of a smartphone-based check-in approach to monitor daily PROs (e.g. mental, emotional, and physical) over a 6-month period in people referred for suspected OSA. We quantified and assessed change in the proportion of participants (
