Figure 6

Minimum oxygen saturation (%) with APAP versus fixed CPAP: meta-analysis, with subgroup analyses by minimum AHI threshold. See Figure 2 legend. Note that studies favoring APAP are to the left of the vertical 0 line. Senn A and Senn B were comparisons of two different APAP devices versus fixed CPAP reported in the same study. Base AHI: baseline apnea-hypopnea index (events/hour) in fixed CPAP group; Base min O2: baseline minimum oxygen saturation (%) in fixed CPAP group; fixed: fixed CPAP.
