The Impact of BMI on the Differences Between Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy and Müller Maneuver.
Article in World journal of otorhinolaryngology - head and neck surgery, 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
Purpose: To explore the differences in drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) and Müller Maneuver (MM) results and study the impact of body mass index (BMI) on these differences. Study Design: Prospective observational study. Methods: Forty patients with OSAHS were included in this study. All enrolled patients were evaluated for MM and DISE using the Velum, Oropharynx lateral walls, Tongue Base, and Epiglottis (VOTE) classification to describe the type, site, and degree of upper airway collapse. Results: The differences between MM and DISE were statistically significant at the tongue base ( Conclusion: DISE is more sensitive in detecting obstructions of OSAHS at the tongue base and epiglottis levels, especially in non-obese patients. MM could be a reasonable alternative in obese OSAHS patients when DISE is not available.
