Prevalence of prehypertension and associated risk factors among health check-up population in Guangzhou, China.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
The authors aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of prehypertension among a cohort of patients presenting for a health check-up in Guangzhou. Using an age-and gender-stratified random sample method, 5170 urban adults aged 18-70 years undergoing health examination in Guangzhou were selected. Prehypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure (SBP) of 120-139 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of 80-89 mmHg. Overall prevalence of prehypertension in our study population was 35.15% (43.75% in men, 23.56% in women; P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that age (odds ratio [OR] =1.257), female (OR=0.437), fasting blood glucose (OR=1.514), total cholesterol (OR=1.241), triglycerides (OR=1.236), uric acid (OR=1.222), and body mass index (OR=1.778) were risk factors for prehypertension. The prevalence of prehypertension was reported to be higher among men in our study population in Guangzhou.
