Does drug‐induced sleep endoscopy affect surgical outcome? A multicenter study of 326 obstructive sleep apnea patients
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Our objective was to determine whether drug-induced sleep apnea (DISE) affects the successfulness of the surgical outcome. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective, seven-country, nonrandomized trial. METHODS: There were 326 consecutive obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients who had nose, palate, and/or tongue surgery included in the study. DISE was performed in only one group. RESULTS: There were 170 patients in the DISE group and 156 patients in no-DISE group. The mean preoperative body mass index (BMI) for the DISE group was 27.6 ± 4.6, whereas in the no-DISE group it was 28.1 ± 3.9 (P = .23). The mean preoperative systolic blood pressure (SBP) for the DISE group was 130.4 ± 16.7, whereas in the no-DISE group it was 142.9 ± 15.5 (P < .001). The mean preoperative diastolic blood pressure (DBP) for the DISE group was 81.4 ± 9.7, whereas in the no-DISE group it was 89.1 ± 9.7 (P < .001). The mean preoperative apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) for the DISE group was 32.6 ± 18.8, whereas in the no-DISE group it was 33.7 ± 19.6 (P = .61). The mean postoperative AHI for the DISE group was 15.9 ± 12.6, whereas in the no-DISE group it was 13.2 ± 8.8 (P = .023). The age-, gender-, BMI-adjusted percentage change in AHI for the DISE group was -48.4 ± 31.9, whereas in the no-DISE group it was -59.8 ± 18.6 (P < .001). The age-, gender-, and BMI-adjusted success rate for the DISE group was 66.5%, whereas in the no-DISE group it was 80.8% (P = .004). The age-, gender-, and BMI-adjusted change in SBP for the DISE group was -6.1 ± 8.6, whereas in the no-DISE group it was -13.3 ± 11.1 (P < .001). The age-, gender-, and BMI-adjusted change in DBP in the DISE group was -5.2 ± 12.1, whereas in the no-DISE group it was -12.4 ± 11.7 (P < .001). The mean age- and gender-adjusted change in BMI for the DISE group was -4.6 ± 12.9, whereas in the no-DISE group it was -6.3 ± 18.5 (P = .34). The Cohen effect of BMI on the overall AHI, lowest oxygen saturation, and blood pressure changes was 0.08. CONCLUSIONS: DISE may not significantly affect surgical success in OSA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 2c Laryngoscope, 130:551-555, 2020.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
