Resistant Hypertension and Sleep Duration among Blacks with Metabolic Syndrome MetSO.
Article in Journal of sleep disorders-- treatment & care, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionResistant hypertension (RHTN) is an important condition affecting 29% of the hypertensive population in the U.S., especially among blacks. Sleep disturbances, like obstructive sleep apnea, insomnia, and short sleep duration, are increasingly recognized as underlying modifiable factors for RHTN. We evaluated associations of RHTN with short sleep duration among blacks with metabolic syndrome.
methodsData from the Metabolic Syndrome Outcome Study (MetSO), a NIH-funded cohort study characterizing metabolic syndrome (MetS) among blacks were analyzed. MetS was defined according to criteria from the Adult Treatment Panel (ATP III). RHTN was defined according to guidelines from the American Heart Association. Short sleep was defined as self-reported sleep duration <7 hrs experienced during a 24-hour period.
resultsAnalysis was based on 1,035 patients (mean age: 62±14years; female: 69.2%). Of the sample, 90.4% were overweight /obese; 61.4% had diabetes; 74.8% had dyslipidemia; 30.2% had a history of heart disease; and 48% were at high risk for obstructive sleep apnea. Overall, 92.6% reported physician-diagnosed hypertension (HTN) and 20.8% met criteria for RHTN. Analyses showed those with RHTN were more likely to be short sleepers (26.8% vs. 14.9%, p< 0.001). Based on logistic regression analysis, adjusting for effects of age, sex, and medical comorbidities, patients with metabolic syndrome and RHTN had increased odds of being short sleepers (OR = 1.95, 95% CI: 1.28-2.97, p = 0.002).
conclusionAmong blacks with metabolic syndrome, patients meeting criteria for resistant hypertension showed a twofold greater likelihood of being short sleepers, prompting the need for sleep screening in this vulnerable population.
