1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

To investigate the relationship between ascending aortic distensibility (AAD) and hypertensive target organ damage (TOD) and its potential value in prediction. One hundred and sixty seven primary hypertension inpatients who underwent coronary CTA examination were enrolled into our study. Retrospective ECG-triggering scanning mode were applied and the images were reconstructed every 5% phase in the entire R-R interval. Maximum and minimum ascending aortic areas as well as the AAD value were calculated on the interested slice. AAD (P < 0.001) and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV, P < 0.05) were changed significantly as the deterioration of TOD. Multivariate logistic regression analysis between TOD and its possible influence factors indicated that AAD was the only independent risk factor for the presence and severity of TOD. One standard deviation decrease on AAD would increase the risk of TOD significantly: TOD1 (odds ratio 0.45, P < 0.05), TOD2 (odds ratio 0.23, P < 0.05), and TOD3 (odds ratio 0.01, P < 0.05). The odds ratio of TOD in the third tertile group was found 5.47 times higher than that in the second tertile group, and the second tertile group TOD odds ratio was 6.4 times higher than that in the first tertile group. Decline of AAD can be taken as the independent predict factor for TOD in primary hypertension patients, superior to baPWV method and other conventional predictors. Without additional contrast media consumption and radiation dose, AAD derived from coronary CTA may provide early detection for hypertensive TOD.
