GLP-1/GIP dual agonist tirzepatide in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome: mechanisms, evidence, and clinical perspectives.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2026. 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
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is closely associated with obesity and metabolic dysfunction. Tirzepatide, a dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist, has demonstrated superior efficacy for weight reduction and improved metabolic health compared with single GLP-1 agonists. Emerging evidence indicates that tirzepatide may alleviate OSAS through its multifaceted effects on adiposity, inflammation, and neuromuscular regulation. This review synthesizes the pharmacological mechanisms, clinical findings, and safety data of tirzepatide in OSAS management. Preliminary studies show promising reductions in body weight, apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), and systemic inflammation, although long-term trials remain warranted. Further exploration into its integration with existing OSAS therapies could redefine the pharmacologic management of obesity-related OSAS.
