Left ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic function in children and adolescents with essential hypertension.

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
introductionLeft ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction in children and adolescents with essential hypertension tend to be underdiagnosed. The aims of this study were to investigate left ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction in the subjects with essential hypertension defined by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.
methodsA total of 38 Korean subjects aged 9-19 years without secondary causes of hypertension were reviewed. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring was done in the 38 subjects to diagnose hypertension and gain the information of blood pressure pattern. The subjects were divided into two groups: a group with elevated blood pressure (BP) index (n = 29) and a group with normal BP index (n = 9). Two-dimensional ultrasound with M-mode imaging and tissue Doppler imaging were performed to measure left ventricular mass index and to assess the left ventricular diastolic dysfunction.
resultsLeft ventricular mass index(g/m(2.7)) was significantly higher in the group with elevated BP index than the group with normal BP index, but there were no differences in left ventricular diastolic dysfunction evaluated by E/A ratio and E/E' ratio. Left ventricular mass index was related only with body mass index, while any of the ambulatory blood pressure monitoring parameters did not predict left ventricular hypertrophy. In terms of diastolic dysfunction in essential hypertension, E/E' ratio in the subjects with left ventricular hypertrophy was higher than that in the other subjects without left ventricular hypertrophy. DISCUSSION: Left ventricular mass index is significantly correlated with body mass index in children and adolescents with essential hypertension, and the diastolic dysfunction could be in higher risk in subjects with left ventricular hypertrophy.
