Hypertension in Asian/Pacific Island Americans.
Review in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 13 papers.
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.

Abstract
Asian/Pacific Islander Americans (APIAs) are the fastest growing population in the United States by percentage. Hypertension is common and increases cardiovascular risk to a great extent in this population. The medical problems of this group are being increasingly encountered by US physicians. Many gene mutations associated with hypertension are more common in Asians. The significance of these polymorphisms in the pathogenesis of hypertension in APIAs is unclear. The percentage of APIAs who are aware, treated, and controlled is small. There may be some differences in the responses to antihypertensive medications between APIAs and whites. The results of human studies on the effect of drinking of tea on blood pressure in different groups are conflicting. Cough associated with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor therapy may be more common in APIAs than in whites. There is a need for more education of APIAs regarding hypertension and for more effective treatment of hypertension by the physicians caring for this population.
