Effect of web-based education on NIV-related side effects and insomnia severity in COPD patients using home NIV: a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 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
purposeThis study aimed to evaluate the effect of web-based education on NIV-related side effects and insomnia severity in COPD patients using home noninvasive ventilation (NIV).
methodsThis randomized controlled trial was conducted with 75 patients between October 2023 and May 2024. Data were collected using the S³-NIV Questionnaire and the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). The intervention group received web-based education regarding NIV-related side effects and insomnia management. Independent samples t-tests were used to compare numerical descriptive characteristics between groups, while Pearson chi-square and Fisher's exact tests were used for categorical variables. Repeated-measures ANOVA was performed to evaluate changes over time and between groups.
resultsCompared with the control group, the intervention group demonstrated significantly higher total S³-NIV Questionnaire scores and higher respiration, sleep, and side-effect subscale scores at weeks 4 and 8. Significant group × time interaction effects were observed for total S³-NIV scores (p < 0.001, η²p = 0.753) and ISI scores (p < 0.001, η²p = 0.352). For insomnia severity, no significant between-group difference in ISI scores was observed at Week 4, whereas ISI scores were significantly lower in the intervention group at Week 8.
conclusionWeb-based education may help improve patient-reported NIV-related symptoms and reduce insomnia severity in patients with COPD using home NIV. These findings suggest that web-based educational interventions may support symptom management and patient adaptation in clinical practice.
