Systolic blood pressure values might further risk-stratify the adverse outcomes of LVH in older patients with chronic kidney disease.
Article in Clinical hypertension, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundLVH is highly prevalent in patients with CKD and is independently associated with subsequent cardiovascular events. We hypothesized that adding systolic blood pressure values to LVH might differentiate different subgroups of patients at higher risk of cardiovascular events (CVE) and other adverse outcomes.
methodsRetrospective cohort study of 243 patients older than 60 years with stages 1-5 pre-dialysis CKD. LVH was assessed by electrocardiogram or echocardiogram.
resultsCardiovascular events occurred in 7 patients (10.3%) among those with SBP <130 and no LVH, 8 patients (10.5%) among those with SBP ≥130 and no LVH, 7 patients (21.2%) among those with SBP <130 and LVH and 25 patients (37.9%) among those with SBP ≥ 130 and LVH. On multivariate analyses, comparing to SBP < 130 and no LVH, the HR for CVE in those with SBP ≥ 130 and LVH was 4 (1.75, 10.3),
conclusionThe combination of higher systolic blood pressure and LVH might identify older patients with CKD at higher risk of cardiovascular outcomes.
