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

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a severe sleep disorder that is associated with various health complications. Despite previous research investigating the impact of ambient temperature on the severity of OSA, the potential influence of temperature variability (TV) remains underexplored. We used a nationwide data set among wearable smart device users to assess the association between TV and OSA severity in a population at moderate-to-severe risk of OSA. A case time series statistical method was used to assess the associations between TV and the risk of OSA exacerbation, apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), and mean oxygen saturation (SpO
