Hypertension and aging in rural Haiti: results from a preliminary survey.
Article in Journal of human hypertension, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Cross-sectional studies in the developed countries document strong relationships among age, systolic blood pressure (SBP) and pulse pressure (PP). There is little information about these trends and their impact in underdeveloped countries with different socioeconomic and lifestyle characteristics. We studied a convenience sample of 572 residents of rural Fontaine, Haiti: 193 males and 379 females (mean, s.d.) age 40.2 (17.1) years and performed intake questionnaires and BP measurements in participants' homes. Income and educational achievement were very low but most-recommended lifestyle factors were very favorable: very high physical activity, low dietary fat, virtually no obesity (body mass index 21.8 (4.9)), and low smoking prevalence. Rough estimates of salt intake were high (~13 g per day) as was the overall prevalence of hypertension: 34.4% (23.4% in males, 40.2% in females). SBP and PP were related closely to age (r
