Prevalence and incident prehypertension and hypertension in postmenopausal Hispanic women: results from the Women's Health Initiative.
Article in American journal of hypertension, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00000611 (Women's Health Initiative), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 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.

Abstract
backgroundThere is a paucity of research on prehypertension and incident hypertension among postmenopausal Hispanic women. The overall objective is to determine the multiple risk factors associated with the prevalence of hypertension status at baseline and incident hypertension at year 3 in postmenopausal Hispanic women.
methodsFor the analyses in this paper, we included a total of 4,680 Hispanic women who participated in the Women's Health Initiative (WHI), a randomized clinical trial and observational study, at baseline (1994-1998) and at third-year follow-up and for whom blood pressure was measured at year 3 (n = 3,848). Multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of hypertension status, defined as systolic blood pressure ≥140 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mm Hg, to assess the odds of incident hypertension at year 3 of follow-up in association with the factors included in the baseline models.
resultsAt year 3 of follow-up, 27.3% of Hispanic women who were normotensive at baseline had progressed to prehypertension, and 9.0% had become hypertensive. Among the prehypertensive participants at baseline, 30.4% had progressed to hypertension. Compared with normotensive Hispanic women, hypertensive participants had a higher number of cardiovascular risk factors: body mass index ≥30 kg/m(2) (OR = 3.76; 95% CI = 3.01-4.71), a family history of diabetes, stroke, and/or myocardial infarction (OR = 1.12; 95% CI 1.03-1.23), treated hypercholesterolemia (OR = 1.57; 95% CI = 1.23-1.99), treated diabetes (OR = 2.04; 95% CI = 1.40-2.97), and a history of cardiovascular disease (OR = 2.04; 95% CI = 1.58-2.64).
conclusionsHispanic women seem to experience an increased risk of incident hypertension in later adulthood. On a practical level, recommendations for preventive care and population-wide adoption of health behaviors, such as community-focused campaigns to engage in physical activity, may contribute to reductions in hypertension risk factors.
