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

Isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) is the most common form of hypertension in older people. It is characterized by increased resting systolic blood pressure (sBP) and increased sBP in response to exercise. It has previously been shown that slow breathing training reduces resting sBP, and the objective of the present study was to determine whether it also reduced the blood pressure response to static handgrip exercise. ISH patients aged between 60 and 74 years were randomly divided into a control group (10 subjects, 4 of which were male) that breathed normally and a trained group (10 subjects, 4 of which were male) that trained daily for 8 weeks by slow breathing against an inspiratory resistance of 18 cmH
